Plants Blog Post #3
We pollinated our plants and then I noticed that were starting to get pods but i also noticed that the leaves and the pedals are falling off. Before we pollinated our plants our tallest plant died because someone was squeezing and pinching the plant so that’s why the plants won’t be that tall.
Here are my observations for the controlled plant shortest plant 2 inch. Tallest plant 2 and a half inches. Widest leaf 1 centimeter wide. Least widest leaf a quarter of a centimeter wide wow that’s small! After we pollinated our plants there were starting to get pods and now the plant has 8 pods that’s a lot! Our plants grow about a quarter of a centimeter a day. Some leafs are even more than 1 centimeter wide. For the controlled plants its pretty high one of the plant is 3 and a half inches long. Some are 2 inches long and 2 and a half inches long.
I notice for the controlled plant that some of the colors on the leaves are dark green and some are light green. For one of the plants the stem is bent but for the rest of the plants the stem is straight up. The leaves are very straight and some leaves are bending some leaves are small and some leaves are big. There were lot’s of flowers blooming but after we pollinated the plant the flowers and some leaves starting falling off but then there will be a seed. After we pollinated our plants there were lot’s of pods it started out with 3 pods than 5 than 6 and now there is 8 pods! Isn’t that awesome. I think there will be a lot of more pods because I think there will keep on getting more pods. And I think that maybe every leaf will fall of because already a lot of leaves fell off so I think more leaves will fall off.

Plant Observations #2
Here are my observations for the past 6 days. On may 9th my observation for the controlled plant was that 1 plant is an inch tall. The plants were very green. There were 9 plants and on each of the plants had 4 leaves. And my observation for the manipulated plant was that nothing happened at all.
On may 10th my observations for the controlled one was that 1 plant was an inch tall. And one leaf died because someone accidentally poured mountain dew on the controlled leaf. And my observations were for the manipulated plant was that nothing happened. On may 10th we didn’t observe so on May 11th my observations were for the controlled plant was that 1 plant was 2 inch tall. 1 leaf was different from the rest of the leaves. And my observations for the manipulated plant was that nothing happened.
My observations on May 12th were for the controlled plant was that 1 plant was 2 inches a quarter tall. 1 flower is blooming. 1 leaf is 2 in a half centimeters wide. And for the controlled plant that still nothing happened.
My observations on May 15th because we didn’t observe on Friday and on the weekends. So my observations were for the controlled plant was that 1 plant was 3 inches tall. 1 leaf is 4 centimeters wide. Shortest plant is a half an inch tall. All leaves were very green. And for the manipulated plant was that still nothing happened.
On May 16th my group had to chose which plants to snip out because we had way to much plants so we need room for the plants so that’s why there will not be that much plants on the picture. My observations were 1 plant is 3 inches and a quarter long. Lot’s of flowers blooming. 1 leaf is 5 centimeters wide. 4 plants because we snipped a lot of plants of. 1 leaf 1 centimeters wide. Leaves are very green.
For the manipulated plant all of the plants were dead so now were trying to bring all of the manipulated plants alive so we gave it a lot of water because the plants didn’t get to have water yet be cause we gave it mountain dew for our experiment. It didn’t grow back yet but hopefully it will grow back soon. I think the manipulated plant didn’t grow because it had way too much sugar in the Mountain Dew it had 77 grams and it had corn syrup.
