== History of Cultivation in Space (if there is any) == There is no specific information available on the cultivation of '''Rumex acetosa''' in space. However, plants like lettuce and radishes have been grown in space as part of experiments to develop sustainable food systems for future missions. Given sorrel’s hardiness and nutritional benefits, it could be considered for future space agriculture projects aimed at providing fresh produce to astronauts.
