Discovery NotesThe sample Hydrangea was found on 08/20/25 around 2:50 PM. It was approximately 69 degrees F and the day was cool with mist. The sample was taken approximately 4 cm into the ground under a hydrangea plant flower bed. The sample was moist when it was collected.
Naming NotesMy phage was found under a hydrangea plant and it reminded me of when Addison Rae said "hi drated" when she got confused because someone told her to "stay hydrated" not "say hi drated".
