Plants grown hydroponically...

Personally, I have zero experience. But I do know people who have done it, not just for weed, but for veggies and herbs as well.

Disney does, 2.5 million square feet of it.
There is a thrilling ride in Epcot that takes you through some hydroponics.

Actually, it might be most boring ride ever. I just checked and it is apparently still running, I figured it might be gone by now.

What's their experience been?

My daughter has an Aerogarden. It is quite prolific, but you have to keep buying their pods as far as I know. You need to harvest fairly frequently as they grow pretty fast. I tried growing herbs with an indoor light last spring and summer but it just did not work out well.

So George - what did you decide?

My single experience with hydroponics was with a couple of heads of butter lettuce I got from Instacart. It was tasty -- as good as dirt lettuce.
