Hello Martin, are you referring to ADF.test() in package "uroot"? If so, it would be good to adress this question to the package maintainer first, which I have cc'ed. Different approaches for determining an appropriate lag length for ADF tests are propagated in the literature. One of them is the usage of information criteria; a second one starting from a high lag number and cutting the lag length down by signifcance (top to bottom) or vice versa (bottom to top); or finally inspect the ACF/PACF's of the residuals in the ADF-test regression and choose the lowest possible lag length such that the residuals are uncorrelated.
