Narrative: Today was my first day as GreenHab Officer! It was a great first day of familiarizing myself with all the plants, they all looked so happy.

I also hand pollinated about 5 flowers on each cucumber plant using q-tips form the science dome. I plan on removing flowers from the cucumber plants to encourage stronger fruit. I harvested two broccoli microgreen pots and ~ 6 radish leaf greens for dinner. I
