Passive Solar greenhouses can be used to monetize your backyard. We are going to be converting our greenhouse into a microgreens greenhouse and I have calculated that our 200 sqft greenhouse can grow ~$50 -$80k in microgreens per year. This year Canada is going to legalize cannabis and people with prescriptions will be able to grow up to 4 plants on their property. Most people will grow it in their homes. This is energy intensive and not great for indoor air quality. A passive solar greenhouse can be set up to grow your medical cannabis legally for much less energy with no harm to your home.
