I went through the same thing, I couldn't reasonably hang the shop light type fixture from the ceiling (old house, high ceiling). The quick and easy way was to use an old table, a couple of car jack thingys as in the pic below, one at each end of the table, set a length of wood, broom handle, whatever across them and then suspend the shop light on chains from that. Of course one can buy table units that do the job more aesthetically but do they ever cost a lot!

Some of the single smaller lights would work for individual plants, as was suggested earlier, but if I understand correctly lighting is required for at least a dozen plants?
