“How can we produce more food?”
Hothouses are 
Buildings that can be unlocked on the 
Idea Tree. They are constructed in 
Food Districts and produce 
Food from Fertile Soil deposits. There are three variants with differing stats: Drum Hothouses, Biowaste Drum Hothouses, and Chemical Drum Hothouses.
Constructing any Hothouse in a district unlocks the "Excessive Fertillisation" District Ability, which increases Food output at the cost of also increasing 
Disease.
