Abstract
Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to cross-functional architectural greenhouse glass, greenhouses including cross-functional architectural greenhouse glass, and/or associated methods. Certain example embodiments involve combining sensor, functional coating, glass patterning, and/or glass composition selection technologies to produce flat or bent substrates suitable for use in such example applications. It advantageously becomes possible in certain example instances to give growers more control over their individual greenhouses (including portions thereof), while also switching from a more qualitative, to a more quantitative, growing operational approach. The customization afforded by certain example embodiments also advantageously enables new efficiencies to be reached, promotes better crop yields, increases profitability for the grower, and/or reduces crop yield cycle time, potentially in ways that are inconsistent with mainstream growing patterns and/or hobbyist or other preconceptions about the standard way(s) in which plants should be grown.
