| Discovery Notes | I found my bacteria soil in the ground by a tree stump. The soil was pretty dry but did have some damp parts of it as well. It was humid outside and I went out in the early morning to find it, around 9:30 am. The depth of the sample in the ground was around 2 inches deep and it was 71 degrees outside. |
| Naming Notes | I picked the name Blessing for my phage because I found the soil on church or holy grounds. I just felt that it would fit the soil the best. |
