    There is indoor lettuce I can buy at my supermarkets that is "zero pesticide" (you can just google it and find several, don't want to post any sort of links to products here). I suspect it's hydroponic.

      > I suspect it's hydroponic. It's axiomatically-speaking the one of the only few ways to make it happen. "zero pesticides" implies no bugs/insects around to need spraying it in the first place, and doing that requires (A) a clean environment + (B) no regular soil (regular soil may have insect eggs / fungi in them). The only things that come to mind are hydroponics & hydrogel agriculture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogel_agriculture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogel_agriculture
