This is plant post #4. The plants grew tremendously through all the weeks. Basically 20 days! Seed pods are seeds inside a pod. Seed pods are kind of moon shaped but thinner. They have little bumps on them and that means there are seeds inside the seed pods.

The life cycle is first you need pollinate them with the flowers pollen. Then the seed pods starts to grow. You have to wait about a week for them to grow not big but not small. After the pod starts to grow it gets bigger and bigger.

Here is the process to grow seed pods with Wisconsin Fast Plants:

1. Plant the Wisconsin Fast plant seed.
2. Put it under sunlight or a lamp for the sunlight.
3. Water it everyday to make it grow taller.
4. Record the data (Optional)
5. Manipulate (Optional)
6. When there are flowers pollinate them.
7. Pick off the seed pods.
8. Open them.
9. Repeat the process over again.

Yesterday we took the seed pods off our plants. Then we put them under a lamp to dry them out. The next day we opened our seed pods and we had a pretty big one that had 3-4 seeds!  Then we taped them onto index cards and we get to plant them again, if we want to.

Here are our plants.
