They better keep the CO2 levels in the green house below 300ppm or the plants will all die...

About the only crop grown with hydroponics is marijuana.
Is this a Pot Start-up Company?

If they can do it in very high cost Japan they can do it in New York State, but I hope their business model is regional because there will be far lower cost producers elsewhere, even regionally for instance central PA.

Why are they not building these things right next to natural gas or coal generation station, they could pipe in the CO2 and use LED lights / batter banks during off peak hours to supplement the light????

Most of the bozos applying will be working to start clandestine grow operations in the plant or steal equipment for home grow operations.

This kind of hydroponic operation is the trend for bagged greens anymore. It’s really kind of neat how it’s all designed, but I prefer my food grown in soil. The hydroponically grown stuff is basically a leaf acting like a balloon, filling up with whatever hydroponic solution it’s being fed. It also is done in a completely sterile environment. Workers and visitors MUST wear sterile suits before entering the facility. Once any disease starts in there, it’s almost impossible to get rid of.
