Low evaporative conditions in indoor (vertical) farms reduce mass-flow–driven transport of calcium (Ca), resulting in tipburn of lettuce. Lettuce tipburn symptoms develop along the margins of young leaves and the growing shoot tip, where necrotic tissue forms as a result of Ca deficiency. For indoor...
