Log Book for May 4, 2006
GreenHab Report
John Dowding Reporting

Water Meter Reading: 10500.3
GreenHab Out: 2997.7
GreenHab In: 17602

Plants in Good Health: Unknown, (4) mint, (5) nasturcium, (6) tomatoes, (7) peas, (8) lettuce, (9) chives, (10) mint

Plants in Poor Health: (1) lettuce, (2) spinach, (3) lettuce

All GreenHab tanks are at an appropriate level, and water was visibly flowing through all tanks except Tank 1. I recruited crew member Paul Tompkins to assist in changing the water filterin the TST recirculation path, and he came up with a clamp arrangement that blocked the flow long enough to change the filter. We can report cleaner water being fed back into the TST. Initial impression is that the GreenHab odor issue is abating.
