I was thinking of an possible invention, I will give it up here; maybe someone already invented it.....It's basically a tripod that is 12-14 feet high, has a light proof fabric that is drawn up with a little motor attached to a timer. It could even have a solar panel on top so it would be "field ready" with a battery. You could make it pretty lightweight with graphite rods that fit together. Since it is so tall it in theory should not block much light to the plant, especially if you found a lightweight fabric or material that would be drawn up and not take much space at the top.

I was thinking about something along those lines as well. These short Alberta seasons could put something like that to use.

I was looking into something similar, trying to use a square tent that had reflective material inside and only the top roof would open.
Sun comes in, reflects all over the place, but once the top is covered it's shade again.
Still need to automate the shade, but when I was trying to build "1 plant at a time" boxes, this idea seemed like it would make alot of sense.
