More of Gas Chambers

Hey Everyone!
This week I continued helping Eileen with her gas chambers. We started our week off by finding the flaws in the chambers. The biggest problem was that the chambers were to hot in the inside. The first time we used them in the field, the plants started to transpire and the inside of the chambers steamed up. So, we spent this week figuring out a more effective cooling method. We spiraled copper tubing around the inside of the chamber and pumped ice cold water through it. Although the water condensed on the tubing and provided the plants with some water, it was the best cooling method we could find. I also got to use the big complicated machinery to drill holes and make the chamber edges sharper once again. Next week we will take the chambers into the field once again, and hopefully we will get the results we want.
