You know, over the years it has become fact that growing the beloved green under watt hungry lights is a risky venture in Canada as the high electricity bills often flag officials who are interested in harvesting the crop(s) and imprisoning the farmer(s).
Well, why not grow green? I read today about an interesting product: a wind turbine that can generate up to 2kw of electricity: DailyTech - Vertical Turbine Hits Home Wind Power Market Spinning . Imagine 4 of these on a property in, say, windy places such as Newfoundland or Nova Scotia, powering those lights. Or suppose you're in the desert and you have some solar panels which have decreased dramatically in price, pumping out a fairly reliable source of energy alongside a diesel modular supply of electricity to buff it up when the clouds are blocking your battery charger. How hard and how expensive would going green be in helping one grow herb?
Does anyone here already do that? Has anyone done the math$? I'd be interested to hear about it.
