@SylvanaquaFarms So vertical farming takes up way more energy than just leaving a plant out in the sun to do its thing. I guess my next question is: are there any components of vertical farming that could be adapted to/incorporated into regenerative Ag, or is it not even worth the trouble?

@SylvanaquaFarms I'm sorry-- I misread this as meaning "lettuce needs 3.5mwh/year/m^2 to grow" under normal conditions. I see now that you meant *inside* the vertical farming infrastructure, accounting for other energy needs that are specific to a vertical farming operation

@SylvanaquaFarms While it's true that converting solar Energy to electrical energy back to light energy in order to feed plants is way more inefficient, the magnitude you present here is innacurate. Maybe we need vertical farming infrastructure outdoors, to take full advantage of the sun!

@SylvanaquaFarms Solar irradiance in CA is 5.5kwh/square meter/day, meaning that 5.5x365= 2008kwh (2.008mwh) per year. Even if lettuce was 100% efficient at converting the sun's energy to biomass (it's not), there isn't even 3.5mwhs worth of solar energy *potential* there.

As bail funds raise sufficient amounts of money, consider redirecting your resources to adjacent organizations that are on the ground in your community. This whole thread is full of local organizations in cities across the US!
