Narrative: Today I watered the crops as normal and the temperature seemed consistent. I also started my blue oyster mushroom growth kid, a very simple model that just requires me to open the side of a box and cut a slit in a bag of spores. I stuck it on the wooden bench, spritzed it with my own spray bottle, and put a trash bag with holes over it to encourage humidity. I sprayed it again at night and will do it twice daily.
Harvest: Today I harvested about 10 leaves of basil, ~15 shoots of thin chives, ~6 shoots of thicker chives, and a fingerful of parsley. See below…
Support/supplies needed: The scale didn’t turn on and might need a new battery, hence my lack of harvest grams! The Smart Home program wasn’t loading after we switched to the backup generator.
