In aquaponics systems, salad greens are normally grown in a flow or flood system with the roots continuously in running water. I have a deep bed ebb and flow system and recently populated one bed with mesclun salad mix seed. I used the vermiculite bed for the salad greens. Please see http://wolfenhawke.blogspot.com/2012/10/aquaponics-grow-beds-and-media-stackup.html for various media stackups. Seeds were just spread on top of the fresh vermiculite.
The following picture is a successful yield offered by this method.
