Yes but also no, might be significantly easier to cool for instance and no environmental concerns.

I got downvoted by people without critical thinking skills. A plant on the moon isn't in space, it's on the moon, a large cold rock, I don't understand why no one charitably understood you can dissipate heat into the actual moon which is not warm and quite cold.

It is notoriously hard to cool things in space. There's no water or air to dump the heat.

Can you elaborate more? I'm under the impression space is very cold, and the heat would get sucked out like I wish I was, at least once before I eat shit.

You need to put the heat somewhere. In the vacuum, heat can only transfer by radiation, which is much less efficient.
