Recent studies have explored the environmental and growth impacts of hydroponic farming systems, particularly focusing on urban settings and the use of LED lighting. Research by Martin and Molin (2019) assessed an urban vertical hydroponic system in Sweden, highlighting its sustainability implications. Similarly, Romeo et al. (2018) conducted a case study in Lyon analyzing the environmental effects of urban hydroponics in Europe. Various papers further investigate the role of LED lighting in enhancing crop growth and quality, with notable findings on the interplay of light spectra in promoting optimal growth in lettuce and other vegetables. These insights underscore the potential of hydroponics and innovative lighting solutions in advancing sustainable urban agriculture.
