Timelapse image for July 6, 2026

It has been a bright, warm day in the greenhouse. Temperatures climbed from a morning low of 22.4°C to a peak of 31.7°C, while light levels reached a high of 8,834 lux before fading to a quiet 5 lux this evening. As the heat rose, humidity dipped from 56.6% to a drier 39.7%, with atmospheric pressure holding steady at 1012 hPa.

Soil moisture levels show a varied picture across our herbs. Both the basil and the chilli plant ended the day fully saturated at 100%. The oregano, however, has been the thirstiest of the group; its moisture levels slid from 53.3% this morning to 41.5% by the final reading. We will keep a close eye on its hydration as we move into the night.

Visually, the Hub is thriving. The basil is looking exceptionally lush with dense, vibrant green leaves. In the center, the chilli plant continues its steady progress, supported by a wooden stake and sporting a single, firm green pepper. It has been a productive day of growth, and the plants are well-positioned for the evening ahead.
