The study was carried out in the Hortinvest greenhouses, within the Research Center for the Quality of Horticultural Products, on five varieties of lettuce (ʻAlanisʼ; ʻAleppoʼ - ʻLollo Biondaʼ type; ʻCarmessiʼ - ʻLollo Rosaʼ type; ʻKristineʼ and ʻSaturdayʼ - ʻRed salad bowlʼ type) grown in two types of unconventional systems, Nutrient Film Technology and Ebb and Flow. The varieties of lettuce were grown, and data on their growth were analysed. We determined the mass of the plants and found differences between them. The aim of the study was to follow the production differences for the analysed varieties grown in the two systems, NFT and Ebb and Flow.
