Low light requirement veggies

So I figure since I'm already wasting the money on electricity to grow my precious marijuana...and I have a little extra space in my grow area that gets light..not really direct light, but light reflection off the walls/etc...

What would be good types of vegetables I could grow in this area along side the MJ? :)

That's an idea...I was thinking green beans, but I don't really want them taking up much space...lettuce could be good...
Yea and lettuce could be grown in a hydro system and you can get a full lettuce harvest every 30 to 45 days. So you can buy a Jumbo pack of lettuce seeds for $2 to $3 and 1 to 2 fully grown lettuce things can pay for that easily.

like said above, lettuce, also arugula, mustered greens, possibly spinach. most any leafy green should be fine

Just about any pepper plant will grow well.
I currently have 4 eggplants
2 tomato
4 jalepeno
4 green pepper
a shitload of radishes and one strawberry
and seven mj plants
I am going to plant carrots today I grow in soil under 2 600w hps 3 125w cfl w/reflectors and 2 6400k t-8 light bars.

I am fortunate enough to have an extra room in my house that I can use for a winter garden. Including my light stands and grow tent, this setup takes up 5'x 12' of a 12'x14'room

Are you growing your tomatoes under direct light? I also have extra room and really want to devote some to hydroponic tomatoes but dont know if there is enough light getting to that area of my tent.

I am planning on doing the same thing - My goals are strawberries, blueberries, kale, lettuce, lavender and maybe mustard greens or something similar.

Let me know what you all run with, would love to compare and contrast results
