What Type of Lettuce Is Best for Hydroponics?

Hydroponic lettuce offers a variety of types and flavors, suitable for nearly any palette. Since they’re delicious and versatile, they’re also perfect for your hydroponic farm. But with so many types of lettuce available, how do you pick just one (or even just a few)? Here are our suggestions for the best types of lettuce for hydroponic growers:

Hydroponic Butterhead Lettuce

Butterhead lettuce offers a velvety texture and a buttery taste. Because of their large, flexible leaves, these plants are an excellent choice for salads, sandwiches, and lettuce wraps.

Hydroponic Oak Leaf Lettuce

With a sweet yet nutty flavor and a buttery, soft texture, oak leaf lettuce is always a favorite. Red and green varieties are frequent hydroponic favorites and quite attractive on a plate or sandwich.
