WEEK 6 (27/05/15)
Very
high condensation, we can barely see the interior of the tank.
Plants are
growing without problems but some are a bit fallen maybe because of humidity.
Flowers look a bit bad, this can be due to humidity or because they may be
dying.
Non-fertilized soil is as deserted as it was at the beginning and water is
maintaining a constant level; that means te water cycle completes himself even if water
doesn’t filtrate from soil. There are
some curious facts like that where there are more plants, water condensates
more in the glass and that even if flowers are dying, other plants are growing
without problems (this can be due to the usual habitat where these flowers
are).

In
this last week, both CO2 and O2 have grown.
CO2 passed from 10022 ppm (0,01%) to 100200 ppm (0,1%) which,
even if it looks like a very little change, means a great increase. O2
in his case had a 0, 47% and increased to 0, 53% which is also a big change.
But they are many possible errors about this because those gases could go in
and out because of a bad hermetic closing or maybe when we introduced the
measurers.
Apart
from that temperature reached 27,6ºC.
WEEK 5 (20/05/15)
Plants
keep growing and water doesn’t decreases too much, very similar to the last
week. The plants start looking for light, especially parsley, so they move to the window. No
changes for the non-fertilized soil part where nothing grows.

Oxygen
this time increased back to 0, 47% which means an increase of 3% but the
quantity of CO2 maintains at 0,01% (10022 ppm). The temperature this
time stayed at 28ºC.
The
fact that oxygen quantity changes but we observe no changes on the CO2
percentage makes us think we maybe did something wrong, probably when we were calculating the oxygen, CO2 and temperature, and we had to open the tank slightly.
