I agree the artificial light makes this uneconomical for most crops. There is an argument for premium greens: - They can be harvested and then delivered to the customer the same day, some places will pay for this type of high end service - Indoor crops grow quicker than outdoor ones due to the optimized conditions. For already fast growing crops like greens that means you can have more harvests per year. - Being able to be located in a densely populated area greatly expands the labor pool - Vastly improved labor conditions by virtue of being indoors and not bending over to the ground all day
