What's up everyone? Welcome back to the Epic Gardening Podcast. Today, like I said in yesterday's

outro, we are going to talk about the business model. How does it all work from an economic

standpoint? So I really hope you enjoy it. I'm going to keep this

intro nice and short so we can drop into the episode. And I would just say if you are interested

in what Square Would Scro is doing, the episode after this one, tomorrow's episode, the final one, is going to talk a little bit about how you can actually get involved in a very

real way.

So stay tuned for that and I hope you enjoy this episode right now.

I think shifting a little bit towards the economics of it.

So we've talked a little bit about how we can make it more accessible, hopefully with some efficiency or technology improvements,

but as it stands right now, and I know over at Gotham Greens or really many hydroponic operations,

there is a limit on the type of crop that you can grow and it seems

like part of it's due to just what works well in hydroponics and part of it seems to be

due to the economics of, you know, how those greens,

basil herbs, etc. are sold. So could you speak a little bit about how you guys determine

what plants are economically viable to actually grow in one of these containers?

Yeah, and you're right as I'll often get asked the question, you know, what can you grow in the farms?

And the answer is, you know, it's not so much a question of capability,

it's a question of economic.

Right.

Right. Right. Right. Right. You know, for any of the listeners that sort of, you know, aren't 100%

familiar with this, you know, basically the plant is getting energy from the light and turning that into biomass, right, growing the leaf.

So leafy greens and herbs, not too much biomass, doesn't need that much energy, you can get that product to market at a very competitive price.
