We want to find the most optimal plants to grow in our hydroponics system to make it as efficient as we can.
All sorts of plants are actually suitable to grow in hydroponics systems, but different plants work better with specific systems. With the way ours is configured, we should avoid vine plants and since we are using hydroponics, we want to make use of its ability to grow plants under stable conditions, so we will try to avoid tougher crops. We will have another use for those plants later. Some of the most popular hydroponics plants are the leafy greens, with lettuce being a big one. We want to grow commonly eaten plants, so we were considering ones like strawberries, but we ultimately decided on lettuce for its versatility and low maintenance.
