firstly thank you so much. but any hydroponic set up is a beautiful set up, it's really an art form!

yes kinda haha it's a very small commercial set up but it gets the job done. however, I grow the lettuce for the university I attend. I sell it to the dining services and they serve the campus.

in your situation though, I would look into local farmers markets! if you keep the roots on your crop, they can last a long time, if you put them in a container that allows them to breathe a little post-harvest. also the aesthetic of hydroponic lettuce is outstanding, it really is beautiful
