AeroGarden - Day 24

Gardener's Log, star date 106283.8.  The experimental aerophonic garden continues to thrive in its Earth based atmosphere. In particular the Basil, both Italian and Purple, seem to agree with the level of moisture and nutrients provided. Mint, Parsley, and Cilantro seem to be amenable as well. More troubling however, is the matter of the Chives and Dill. The Chives continue to grow but refuse to maintain an upright position preferring instead to be parallel to the growing surface. Perhaps the gravitational pull of the AeroGarden unit is having an unforeseen effect on their molecular structure. I'll monitor them closely. The Dill, regrettably, has failed to appear as promised. The indicated 10-14 day sprouting window has, sadly, come and gone without any sign of growth. In a final act of desperation my science officer removed the bio-dome two days ago. We're at a loss to explain the situation and its feared that pickle production may be severely hampered. Research into the issue is ongoing.

  • I'll take that as a compliment.

  • Thanks for the progress report on the aerogarden. I'm a bit skeptical but also hopeful that it will produce well. Thanks for being the guinny pig.....
