I have no problem with the light, it is enclosing the light in the plant. It creates more minus then plus's. I can see using a regen blower into a humid lung room (plenum) Then use some pvc to support the plant and dispurse CO2/humidity enriched chilled air to create your micro-climate.This would help fight the light. But look up heath robinsons grow's as he punched out some weight in similar setups. I try to keep it simple as it helps to fix itself later. That is a 10' length of herb you want to fill with a plant. I hope you knock it out of the park but your going to have to help that girl out a lot. JK

I am a firm believer in KISS. One bulb inside holding heat,Heat rises moving air, hard to control RH%,Co2. Plant lit from 1 side, not as good. I Hate screens I feel it inhibits branch strength and growth. But a vert scrogg with double hung bulbs lit on both sides offset would eliminate popcorn and air movement common to growing trees. control rh, airflow, control hotspots etc. If you have a hard on for light movers you can float them up and down the rows.
The 6' half moons are hung from the ceiling, and made of heavy gauge wire fencing. I can only hope this proves to be inadequate! Each half moon is 5-6 running feet around the curve and four feet tall. Since I'll install the plant in the middle at 12-16" tall, it need grow only 3 more feet to reach each corner. This is very achievable with the strain I've chosen, a very stretchy sativa.
Now that I've had another shot of espresso. I liked your light movers on the exterior of the plant simply because as the plant grows out it gives room for the buds to go big! That was a much easier way to say it.. I am a coffee whore!
That's a tough question to answer. I equate man hours into the GPW ratio. Example. I know someone that has MS so it's tough for him to do a lot of work.. had to keep the set up and feed schedule simple.

Constant light feed. Nothing else added. Clean up and stake. Maybe throw some fresh water in there once in a while
8 1/2 potatoes every time.
Keep that in mind when you create your design to minimize the man hours. Sometimes that is more appealing than hitting 3 a LT.
With that being said.. I can't wait to jump down the rabbit hole!
I modified my most recent wall o dank to curve the trellis so that wherever there is a bulb, the screen is pulled tighter to the wall where the bulb is hanging. Trying to keep the flowers further from the light where they usually end up the closest... but as stated, theory is one thing and practice is another. I'm gonna have more work training this round for sure. I also had an idea similar to yours tty a little while back that if you want I can post here. I think it may benefit you actually.
Running only one will severely limit an experiment, having 2 or more would allow you to try some variables If one plant died for no known reason you would have more to go on. You might just blame the sys rather then the real cause. JK
