Please consider adding a photoelectric/photoresistor light meter sensor for measuring plant light levels (a.k.a. "sunlight measurement) in order to help determine growth conditions to the hardware design and firmware code/images.

Examples of Arduino compatible Digital Light Meter sensors are BH1750

These GUVA-S12SD UV sunlight intensity sensor modules look otherwise to be relatively inexpensive:
