AT/D12 - Science Complex

The idea fascinated Lucy. She was initially put off by the idea as a series of Terran horror movies had involved carnivorous tomatoes, but they weren’t likely to run into that problem. Terran agriculture had involved the use of cross-pollination to breed in agreeable traits. Flavor, firmness, and longevity.

“Cross-pollination sounds cool. The trick would be finding complementary attributes. Does many me wonder what varieties the Beta-quadrant have to offer. Something that would go well with a salad or pizza?”

There was also the matter of something that would be nice made into a sauce or juiced in a Bloody Mary, though it wasn’t Lucy’s kind of drink. Did the Beta quadrant have pizza? A cotton swab was the perfect was to apply the pollen. Would it be adding pollen from what passed for a standard tomato plant on Terra or the other way around?

“Might also need to consider bio-filter shielding to avoid mixing pollen samples with the test plants.”

A little practical botany would be fun.
