Life in a Cup

Day One (2/14/2011) : Herbert was conceived on the fourteenth day of the second month in the two-thousand-eleventh year of our Lord. Placed in the soil of the cup of Eden. Upon arriving home to room 48 of the Milky-way Galaxy, Herbert was given substantial water (to be watered every other day) and placed in direct sunlight.

Day Two (2/15/2011) : Herbert remains in a dormant state within the soil. Placed in direct sunlight once more.

Day Three (2/16/2011) : Same as before... Direct Sunlight, a bit of water.

Day Four (2/16/2011) : Placed in direct sunlight for the day. Still no signs of growth.

Day Five (2/17/2011) : Left in direct sunlight, given water.

Day Six (2/18/2011) : Sunlight... Same as usual.

Day Seven (2/19/2011) : Herbert has broken the soil. Given water and sunlight.

Day Eight (2/20/2011) : Still on the window sill, given water. Still growing.

Day Nine (2/21/2011) : Looks about the same, still in window sill.

Day Ten (2/22/2011) : Placed in new continuous light hanging apparatus and given water. Provides light and warmth via fluorescent lamp during daylight hours.

Day Eleven (2/23/2011) : Taken to class. Both leaves of sprout are looking healthy.

Day Twelve (2/24/2011) : Beginning to grow in height, given water.

Day Thirteen (2/25/2011) : Experiencing yet more growth in height. Began glowing height-wise later than some other classmates' plants but appears to have a thicker base.

Day Fourteen (2/26/2011) : Watered and two new leaves are showing. Still sitting in the window sill.

Day Fifteen (2/27/2011) : Still growing, little by little...

Day Sixteen (2/28/2011) : Watered once again, new leaves are fully uncurled now. Still growing in height little by little. Coconut husk mulch placed around base of seedling.

Day Seventeen (3/1/2011) : Still growing at a slow and steady pace.

Days Eighteen - Twenty-three (3/2/2001-3/6/2011) : Growth is slow but steady, above edge of cup now. Watered every other day.

Day Twenty-four (3/7/2011) : Sprout still growing, left in full light. Got juiced today. Muwhahaha

Herbert is dead... Time to start over new.
