My group and I have been working on our plants which you should all know if you read my other 2 posts. Let me give you a little info on our plants since 2 weeks ago… Why don’t we start with pollination. If you don’t know what pollination is then let me explain. Pollination is when bees butterflies or certain types of birds for the example hummingbirds all those animals and insects pollinate.  What pollination does is keep plants alive. Why you ask… Because when something like a bee takes its bottom and touches the pollen in the flower it mixes in with another flower and makes a new flower. We did that just with our fingers. If you don’t get that let me explain we used our fingers and touched the stigma of the flower and touched the other flower and soon that’s going to create a new flower.

                                 I think it’s time to talk about the controlled and manipulated plant now. Why don’t we start off with the manipulated plant! So far nothing… not even one tiny little sprout. The soil is dry… the plant hasn’t even grown! And if you ask me boring… Any way moving on. Now there’s only one more thing to talk about and that’s the controlled plant. Our controlled plant is dying. But at least it’s 16 centimeters tall. It has exactly 15 leaves. It used to have 24 leaves but it’s dying so the leaves are falling off. Our flowers are also dead… there as dry as a bone! Basically everything about the plant is dry and dead. Like the soil I’d say it’s probably so dry that it’s as hard as a rock! But there’s one thing that I find kinda strange… here’s the thing we’re pretty sure that it’s dead but it has huge pods. And when I say huge I don’t mean big I mean huge! My group and I are actually thinking that maybe the buds aren’t gonna grow if our plant is dead. We’re thinking that because the buds have been their for at least 3 or 4 weeks. That’s everything that has been going on this week hope you liked hearing everything about the plants!
