Growing lettuce indoors under lights

The romaine lettuce placed in the modified aeroponic system on October 24, 2009 is doing great.

As much as I like the greenhouse, I feel that growing indoors affords much better control over growing conditions. Having grown lettuce indoors for a number of years I can pretty much predict the outcome.

Frequently I visit gardening forums to view the posts, and in particular the posts concerning indoor gardening. I read post after post asking for help controlling all sorts of problems that can be attributed to growing in soil.

Honestly, if the only way I could garden was by using soil, I would not even bother.
