Not to hate on your hobby, but why would you grow lettuce using artificial light? Doesn’t seem very economical given that lettuce is typically not very expensive
I’m not sure where you live, but where I’m at it feels like everything is expensive. Want a head of lettuce? That’s $5. You want that same head to still be good and fresh 2 weeks later? Ha! That’ll be another $5.
Whereas my 60 watt Mars Hydro (the big one) only uses $3 in electricity per month. Now the fan and the smaller supplementary light use power too. Idk how much, but it couldn’t be more than the purpose made grow light. So let’s call it $6 per month for fresh lettuce whenever I want it. Can’t beat that with a stick, bud.
