It does not seem like that would be very practical.
Very few economically important plants will thrive in anything less than full sunlight. This makes sense because most plants become economically important because they are productive (good at turning sunlight into something we want like calories or wood).
The exceptions are plants that are grown for some valuable quality which is only needed in scarce quantities, like some spices or flowers.
Yeah, I didn't understand the hydroponics comment at the end. How does it work better to grow plants indoors than outside if you're using a limited amount of sunlight indoors? Are there other factors that make it worth it?
