  6. It depends upon how much space, time and money to spend! I’ve personally seen tomatoes (determinate plants), cucumbers, cantelope, and lettuce commercially grown in hydroponic green houses. If you need something to grow fairly rapidly, I would choose leafy vegetables such as lettuce, mustard greens, beet greens, or kale. Tomatoes, cucumbers, and cantelope need more time to mature and may need structural support of the vines and developing fruit. The hydroponic greenhouse used rejected pantyhose to support the developing melons.
