Today:

Plants watered; salad machine, nursery, and surface plants all thriving.

All Tank levels normal.

Data collection for the new weather station began; (see Weather Report).

Open Issues: Suggested GreenHab tasks from Gus Sheerbaum evaluated. Two of the three most urgent tasks are finished, the solar cell re-mounting and the weather station installation. Engineering will complete the third, the TST float, this week. The remaining tasks will be considered in the coming week, as time permits.

Treatment system appears not to be removing nitrate; we are currently evaluating Crew 27's assessment and proposed action for this issue (see report of 4/10).
