Try one of these

Two hundred lettuce sites

under $1,200 · at least 200 plant sites · at least 14 daily light integral · at most 30 square metres

Towers get you there on space and lose on light; channels are the other way round. The budget is the part that makes it a decision.

Retrofit a polyhouse

under $2,200 · at most 72 square metres · at most 6 kelvin above ambient · at least 120 plant sites

A 6 × 12 m house for capsicum. The existing fans stay. The summer heat load has to clear, and this is the one most first builds fail.

Oyster room, marketplace parts only

under $900 · at most 4 kelvin above ambient · at least 60 plant sites

A hundred kilos of substrate, using only parts that are actually listed. Cheapest cost per site wins, and the exhaust is what binds.
