Let me clarify.

Although vegetative material is being grown, this is not farmland in the
usual sense of that word and is not located outdoors; it is grown inside a
building. Nor is anything being "manufactured" so IMO neither
landuse=industrial nor product applies. The marijuana is grown, the flowers
harvested and dried and then shipped to retailers where it is sold.

It is only a growing operation. There is no shop involved at these sites
because what they produce must be sold elsewhere in a special shop licensed
and regulated by the government.

So, what do you think about

building=commercial
farming_system=vertical_farm(ing)
produce=marijuana
shop=no

Taginfo only lists 109 instances of the tag farming_system so far but this
situation seems an ideal use for it.

Thanks for the feedback
