A grow light for stimulating plant growth is presented herein. The grow light includes a plurality of primary light modules with LEDs fixedly mounted to a support assembly and spaced a distance away from a plant canopy, and one or more secondary light modules movably or pivotally mounted to an end of one or more of the primary light modules. A positioning assembly is disposed interconnected light modules for manually or automatically movably disposing the secondary light modules into different angular positions relative to the plant. A height adjustment assembly is also include to movably position the light assembly, such as the plurality of primary light modules or the secondary light modules in a vertical direction. Additional features can be included, such as positioning sensors, environmental sensors, CO2 delivery systems, water cooling systems, ground wire interconnections, and light frequency control.
