Here goes the first real experiment of the school year. Cress seeds in petri dishes, one in a dark cupboard, one in a window, both well watered. The hypothesis? Plants need light to grow. Will we be right? Do they need light, or just warmth? Guess we'll see!!

Starting Our Experiment.

sprout? or grow?
there's a difference
Oh, and I bet your cupboard sees some light...
Grow. But these are cress seeds, they take 14 days to be fully developed into plants, so I'll only be letting them grow a week to check. In a week, you can have baby cress to eat.
As for that cupboard getting light, I'll be careful this week. Plus, it's my bulk spice cupboard, so I don't have to open it unless my fresh stuff runs out, but right now the herb garden is growing nicely, so I think we can avoid opening it for a week.
