Hydroponic lettuce is actually really, really easy. And Tomatoes require a different technique so it’s either a different setup, or you can just get a tomato bag. That’s one of the best things ever.

Tomatoes are great.

To grow the hydroponic potatoes is like a bucket for 2 potatoes which is a tough thing to swallow cost wise.

Reminds me of my dad, who has 2 chickens. He calculates $3 per egg. That’s steep.

LOL your dad.

Yeah, greens are the first thing we’ll try if we take the hydroponic plunge.

Right now my tomato plan involves the indeterminate dwarf varieties and 5gal buckets in the garage next to my standup freezer to keep them warm. with lights of course.
