This is on a microscopic scale, mind you, but I grow lettuce
and mesclun mix in a container on wheels and pull it into a
shaded area on hot sunny summer days.
I am able to have fresh lettuce and mesclun throughout the
entire summer in this manner (but I live in northern
Pennsylvania in the mountains, I don't know if it would work
in Texas or similar places).
This could be adapted to a larger scale.
