It will be interesting to see how the market scales. There are certainly advantages to large commercial greenhouses etc... but there is a quickly growing trend for small local producers that grow a few hundred or couple thousands plants at a time. They might service a grocery or a few restaurants. There is also a trend for people to grow at home, grove labs was already mentioned in this thread as an example. My guess, ultra-efficient, nearly fully automated indoor production facilities will be a major player. Labor and energy are the two biggest costs to production and there are emerging technologies to address both of these.
Regarding Europe, it hasn't been a primary focus for us but we have exported a few orders to the UK, Germany and Netherlands. I hadn't heard of pressure on vendors to screen their customers. I'll have to look into this.
Our orders so far have split about 50:50 between veggies and marijuana. The marijuana side of the business does certainly seem to overshadow the veggie side as far as general public interest goes!
