>Why are you moving your light and not just adjusting the brightness?
By intuition and watching previous documentaries/youtube videos I would assume that keeping the light close within a few inches off the top of the plant would be more energy efficient than having the light on the roof and having it at full blast with tin foil lined walls.
From what ive seen from a few google searches the "grow kits" for sale start around 260 USD at the cheapest such as
https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Reflective-Hydroponics-Growing-Upgraded/dp/B0CKLC6N6T?th=1
And can go up to 1,000 - 3,000 USD for the nicer looking ones. From what ive seen theyre all the same; fan, bucket, goggles, heater, thermometer/humidity sensor and wall outlet timers.
They sell off the shelf components at a markup and most of them lack automation systems. Some like this
https://www.amazon.com/AC-Infinity-Integrated-Controls-Automate/dp/B09WJK8GVB?th=1
Have an app that you can control the light, turn on/off the fan/heater. But no automatic fertilizer feed system, water level regulation, or auto raising/lower of lights just brightness and color control. I would not trust this kind of app with my personal info, its obviously Chinese spyware.
