On our server www.gms-biobox.de you can find web-cam pictures of germinating
and growing radish. The pictures will be updated every 10 minutes.

The plants are growing in a gastight plant growth chamber, called Biobox,
which provides exact control of temperature, humidity, light and wind.
Additionally the Biobox controls the concentrations of oxygen and
carbondioxide in the atmosphere and measures the rate of production and
consumption of these gases.

The system started today (so it will last maybe two days before there is
much to see) and will run for  2-3 weeks. During this time the Biobox will
not be opened.
The plants are growing in a hydroponic system. They have 24 hours light (no
dark-time), the temperature is 25=B0C and the rh 75%.
