Such a cute turnip! A result of the UoG Deep Space Food Challenge team's prototype production system that uses novel VNFT reusable media and a 3D printed plant support. Go GOOSE!

Dear Twits- A few weeks ago I posted a pic of a lost cat that showed up at our place. I don’t like cats. You all said, “He’s y’all’s now!” I disagreed. You were right. I stand corrected. He’s won our hearts and gets to stay, He’s a cool dude. He needs a name. Help me out!

Pleased to share that my first peer reviewed manuscript has been published! I enjoyed learning about the world of #medicinalmushrooms and I look forward to a future where #psilocybin therapy is readily available to those who need it. DOI: 10.1615/IntJMedMushrooms.2021041921

According to the @HerbalGram 2020 market report, #Ashwagandha sales grew a staggering 185% from 2019. Sitting comfortably within the 15 most popular medicinal plants sold in the US, it's poised to become a top-selling #phytopharmaceutical in 2022 and beyond!

The Biomass Production Chamber (BPC) was a NASA BLSS where crops such as lettuce, rice, soybeans, and more were grown. Awesome! #astrobotany // 📸: @nasa

Stop and smell the flowers! Checking in on the Pak Choi that I've been growing on @Space_Station. This is part of Veggie - an experiment studying crop production in microgravity that could help astronauts become more self-sufficient on long-duration missions to the Moon or Mars.

Room One has grown red lettuce, de-pigmented the red color, and have chosen a sun and hummingbird picture to transfer to the leaves, allowing the red color to come back! #vegasketch #scientists #STEM
