Plant Experiments (Week 2-3)
Our controlled quad is doing great. Since there’s no bees in the classroom, we have been taping the plants for pollination. We observed that the petals of the flowers are falling off. Mrs. Luciano told us that it was normal. “The flower petals are falling of so it can grow seed pods” She had said. Our plant is green, bright bright green. It has a few yellow leaves, but that’s okay. Our seed pods are turning brown and it is getting ready to fall. The plant is almost at the end of its life. We are going from seed to seed. Our manipulated plant has no flowers, is dying and looks like it got zapped by lightning. There’s buds, but I don’t think their going to be flowers any time soon.
Our experiment is over, we got our conclusion. We put our manipulated plant on a diet of regular water, not dyed. But the second round of flowers just came, and there’s flowers galore. I looked today and I saw something horrifying, our manipulated plant dyed! I am so sad. But it proved our experiment. I’d like to say a thank you to Mrs. Luciano, for teaching us and helping us along, the school district, for the seeds. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity!
