Colony Inventory Rhythms
Steady 14-week cycles keep the mess hall stocked like a well-run Southern kitchen. No rush, just reliable checks that feed the crew without waste.
Week 1-2: Baseline Stock
Count dry goods, smoked proteins, collards and tomatoes. Match against Earth manifests for 99% accuracy, same discipline as restaurant deliveries.
Week 6: Mid-Cycle Audit
Check perishables and dome-grown greens. Adjust orders; tie into soul-food rotations so morale stays high with familiar flavors.
Week 12-14: Full Reset
Full inventory + resupply plan. Build in buffer for harvest shortfalls. Shared responsibility ensures everyone eats well.
Grounded in the same ledger work that kept neighborhood barbecues running on time. Earth rhythms scale to Mars domes.
