mint, pineapple mint, 2 rosemary plants, and spicy orange thyme.
More cilantro seeds were planted, replanted zucchini and peas.

Narrative: All crew members helped in the garden today and we got so
much done! We jammed to some tunes as we worked, thanks to Atila. The
second shade cloth (30% cover) was put up and the white Ikea hanging
pots were hung at a height to allow for watering. We separated pepper
plants into pots, moved acorn squash into individual pots, thinned
basil and cilantro. All hands were on deck in the greenhouse and we
left feeling accomplished. Now to catch the little critter that is
eating the plants.

Harvest :78 grams basil and 13 grams cilantro--
