Ok but the selling point generally seems to involve how you will have fresh vegetables/fruits year round, or in a place where you cannot have your own garden. So you are saying that the selling point these products always make is false, I think that requires some citation/argument as to why it should be so - not just a flat statement.

Just plant a tomato in a pot, put it by the window and wait. I could find you citation about the "freshness" of your garden products, but nothing beat experiencing it for yourself.
Hydroponics and LEDs are good for mass-producing a bit of basil and a lot of tomatoes, but the taste is just not there. They're bland, and unsavory.
