Narrative:

Since we put the mercury thermometer in the Greenhab, it is easier to monitor the heat. I opened the door from 0830 to 1130, and it was not really hot in the afternoon.

I did my experiment this afternoon and made some interesting observations about my radishes, I will see in the next days how it goes.

Harvest: None.

Support/supplies needed: None.
