Since I harvested the Tatsoi, I removed the overhead fluorescent light ballast. Now all my plants are receiving only indirect natural light through the window and really bending toward the light. Theres only a few plants in the system left.

I transplanted this wild spearmint a couple of weeks ago into my Aquaponics system. It has kept its color and its roots have quickly grown. I moved it closer to the window and put it into a corner of the growbed.
I thought Id face it pointing away from the window to see how long it would take to turn itself around.
When a plant grows toward the light, the observable effect is called phototropism. Positive phototropism is what happens when it grows toward the light. Negative phototropism is when it grows away from the light. I havent seen negative phototropism with any of my other indoor plants.
Here it is the next day.
Here it is two days later. Pretty cool, huh?
Like the other low-light herbs Im growing, it looks like Spearmint is acclimating just fine.
