This seems like a terrible idea considering the amount of heavy metals used in the manufacturing process. I think a better use case would be growing agricultural products used for industrial purposes (the "plastic" window mailers on the majority of the junk mail you receive is made from soybeans for example, or hemp for fiber production), but this seems like we are asking for trouble.
