All I can recommend is to grow indoors with a hepa filter. I don't know how well they work for cannabis pollen, but my google research indicates that they should be fine enough. As a greenhouse requires decent airflow, I don't think that would help.
Other than that, your autoflower idea is probably your best bet, as arson charges are a PITA.

I hear ya. This was my first outdoor season, for weed at least, but I think I'm going to go for it again. Thing is I'll have to get security cameras, one of the two plants I had going got ripped.
But I've always loved going out to check on my hot peppers.

2019 was a hemp gold rush, check who your neighbors are for this season and make sure they're growing feminized seed. There should be less hemp growers around in 2020. I'm guessing you're in Southern Oregon? Or like the others said, grow indoors with a good filter.
