Crew 161 handed over several trays of bean and radish seedlings for our

crew to repot with soil and maintain during our mission. We will utilize

a recycled plastic jug for an improvised pot to continue these plants.

Photos and data will be emailed to the Crew 161 GreenHab Officer. These

seedlings were grown in different combinations of Martian and Earth

soils.

We unpacked and inventoried the two plant growth experiments’ hardware

boxes that arrived to Hanksville from the Kennedy Space Center in

Florida. We will utilize the set-up instructions that the principal

investigators sent by email and transmit set-up photos for review. Both

plant growth experiments will be run inside the temporary grow tent on

the first floor of the Hab for a two-week period.
