In preparation for @GrowBeyondEarth trial #2 for @FairchildChall at @josemartimast, we reduced light intensity 20% while maintaining the same color composition. Interesting observation: nearly 30% reduction in energy use. 🤔🌿🛰️ #mast2223 @carllewis @plantsinspace @JacobIkaros

A few weeks ago we harvested for our @GrowBeyondEarth Misome plants. They were edible and delicious! After measuring and weighing we prepared a Salad Bar to celebrate. Now we're analyzing data to find out the best growth using the least light energy and water! @FairchildChall
