Thursday Morning Riddle

I’m a process that generates food from a light.
I am useful for plants who would reach a great height.
That is all I can mean, which brings with it a plight.
And so that’s why this riddle was tricky to write.

Who am I?

UPDATE: Riddle solved by Asher. See comments for answer.
