I like this idea, but I do not see it as a scalable business.  Unless you plan on training store employees to become hydro growers.  Yes IoT can help with sensor technology etc, but there is still a required human element.

So nice I don't have to sanitize my salad greens. So nice I don't have to go to stores for many vegetables.

Indeed @dcarch!

 

I have a great little 80watt LED strip bar light that not only sprouts seeds beautifully but also produces some great lettuce.  My outdoor Bay Leaf and Curry leaf plant are near a South facing window almost on a heat return - so far, they are content!  I run no-till organic living soil.

 

Curious as to what veggies you grow during the cold months and your setup?
