This week our scientists wanted to know if a plant could grow without soil. Some of our scientists said that a seed could grow without soil, where as other scientists said that there was no way a plant could grow! In order to find the truth we conducted a controlled experiment. We planted lima beans in ziplock bags surrounded by wet paper towel. Each paper towel was given the same amount of water and hung on a wall with the same amount of light. Below is a few pictures of the lima beans we planted. |
