There were various attempts to germinate seed and grow plants in zero or very low gravity some while ago. Sort of hydropnics set up IIRC because of keeping water at the roots.OK... here's an odd one.

I'm pretty sure I remember NASA doing this back in the 1970s and finding that the plants grew really well. Anybody else remember this?
