In zero gravity, plants can grow in two ways: they either cling to the surface and curl along it, or they begin to reach for the light – it all depends on their type. Plants are usually grown in hydroponics (a method of growing on artificial media without soil). Seeds are sown in containers fixed on a horizontal surface with an artificial substrate and conditions are created so that air is driven through the capsule or greenhouse. For irrigation use water or other nutrient liquid. Usually it is supplied automatically, although in the European module of the ISS, astronauts water the plants manually: from a small syringe, […]
