Each approx. 500ft2 of greenhouse space can gross $2k+ per 35-45 day production cycle and start-up costs can be paid off after first cycle. Production can scale up ad infinitum. Labour and material costs (per 500ft2 greenhouse "unit") are low three-figures per cycle. Targeting local wholesale/retail market to maximize benefit to local buying public and minimize risk.
