  1. Yes, hydroponically grown crops need special care during harvesting, transport and storage. Tools like clean scissors, trays or gloves are used to maintain hygiene. Since microgreens and leafy produce are delicate, they are packed in moisture-retaining or breathable containers. Cold storage may be needed to retain freshness. Traditional crops use more rugged handling, but hydroponics demands precise, gentle methods to avoid bruising and maintain quality.
