There's no such thing as an efficient space heater. They are all the same efficiency: 100%, because all the energy goes to it's intended use, which is heat.

In Bitcoin mining, generating heat is an inefficiency. Computers generate heat as a waste product, so in effect them using the waste heat from Bitcoin mining to heat their greenhouses makes the computers into the more efficient space heaters.
