Constant Gardening on the Space Station. Astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) have enjoyed leafty greens, thanks in large part to the efforts of Expedition 64 crew member Michael Hopkins. NASA's SpaceX Crew-1 mission commander took the lead on conducting four Vegetable Production System (Veggie) experiments, March 2021. VEG-03K and VEG-03L tested a new space crop, ÔAmara' mustard, and a previously grown crop, ÔExtra Dwarf' pak choi. They were grown for 64 days, the longest leafy greens have grown on station.
