No, this is actually closer to indoor farming. Shelves hold the plants
which are fed nutrients hydroponically, and these shelves may be stacked
one atop the other. Hence the term "vertical gardening".  Everything is
controlled artificially, even the content of the atmosphere.

And it does not take place in a greenhouse because the light cycle must be
carefully controlled to produce flowers; sunlight is not required and, in
fact, it is not desirable. That is one major reason these facilities are
indoor.

Although the produce is natural, the process to grow marijuana at latitudes
not near the equator is emphatically not.
