you can use it to grow ANYTHING.
combine this tech with the vertical farm idea and you got crops all year round taking up less
space than normal farmland and giving 10 times the food per hectacre. amazing stuff that we as a
whole should be doing and we arnt... makes me sad face > :'(

Of course good sir, we are not performing the actions necessary for mass production of this
product because this is America: Where effective and profitable are rarely paired together.

Apparently Canadians negros.
I'm sure this only works well for leafy vegetables. You probably couldn't use it to grow anything
with a significant root system like wheat or corn, and definitely not anything like potatoes.

There's a good reason we're still growing stuff in dirt -- it's cheaper. Hydroponically grown
vegetables aren't just grown in water -- they're grown in mineral solutions. So you have to
create the structure yourself, then prepare and transport mineral solution to the plants, and
light it yourself. Or you could put seeds in the ground, which is already there, and use the sun,
which is already there. Which is going to cost less?

We're at no lack of arable land in the USA or at a deficit of food. If anything, we produce too
much of it which leads to other issues, primarily associated with price and economics. Food gets
so cheap that farmers can't make a living off of it, so the Government buys their excess from
them and lets it rot in a warehouse while maintaining standard prices to prevent an agricultural
collapse.
Why make something which already yields no profit cost more, to produce resources that we have in
excess? Maybe for future uses but it's too far ahead of its time to be appreciated.

Agreed. I think this will have very useful future applications, like in colonies on the Moon or
Mars. Or for personal use, if you want to grow vegetables in the city. But this doesn't solve a
problem we have with modern food production.
