Checking in on our @GrowBeyondEarth experiments in Greenwerks Lab! Misomes are at DAP 13, and herbs DAP 22. There’s spotty growth in some places. Some herbs are growing better than others. These are all things we’re documenting as we grow at @NASAKennedy 🌟🚀🌱

Today we harvested our tasty Misome plants for the @GrowBeyondEarth @FairchildChall we were pleased with how quickly and hearty the plants grew under the white light condition 🌱

I am so proud of my students hard work for @GrowBeyondEarth This is the best citizen scientist project to get kids involved in real science, use critical thinking, and problem solving skills. Thank you all for giving my kids an opportunity to grow! @getMARSfarm @JacobIkaros

We have harvested our misome and it went really well all of the plants are very healthy and the whole project was successful @_norwayneffa @NASA @GrowBeyondEarth @getMARSfarm

Our VEG-05 team cannot wait to see your patch designs!!! Plant pillows are planted and ready to launch!
Mission logos are an awesome NASA tradition designed to record a mission through a single piece of art. Here is an opportunity for your students to create the mission logo for Veg-05! This mission is working to grow tomatoes in Veggie 🍅 @GrowBeyondEarth fairchildgarden.org/science-…

Harvest day for our @GrowBeyondEarth project! The @kendallscience6 students weighed and measured the miso to determine yield for our growing conditions. They liked the taste - well, most of them. I asked them to imagine being in space for a long time without vegetables.

Misome Mac n Cheese? Pretty tasty if you ask our 6th period Plant and Animal class! @GrowBeyondEarth @getMARSfarm

Harvesting microgreens in microgravity can unsurprisingly be quite messy. Lucia Poulet #2022MeLiSSAConference @NASAKennedy @plantsinspace have the solution - coming soon.

The @UF PH-03 experiment (dubbed EPEX2) will look into generational changes in the plant epigenome by completing 2 full life cycles in space in the Advanced Plant Habitat Hardware in conjunction with @NASASpaceSci @redwire @UFExplore @UFNews

Did you know here at Wallops, we send experiments to the @Space_Station ?! Ask us anything about the science we send up and what it takes to make it happen! Reply with your questions and experts will answer over the next few days leading up to launch!

The astronauts have been growing plants and vegetables on the station for years. Scientists are planning new experiments to promote space agriculture and sustain future crews. See space botany pix... flic.kr/s/aHsmEXy73j
We’re sending an experiment to @Space_Station that will help examine how spaceflight stressors affect plants generationally. This study aboard @NASA’s #NG18 cargo mission could provide key insight for growing crops on the Moon & Mars, as well as on Earth. go.nasa.gov/3UhLFys
