Look At Our Garden Grow!!!

 We are studying plants on room 4, so we are going to grow some veggies for the school garden.

Today we planted our veggies. 

First of all we put all of our 'grow pellets' into seed trays.

Then we had to add water to them so that they could expand. 

 When they were expanded they were like a little bag of soil, perfect for growing seeds from.

 We had to make a little hole in the top of our seed pellet which we dropped a seed into.

Then we gently covered the seed up with a bit of soil. 

 We each planted three different seeds. We chose from broccoli, lettuce, radish and tomato seeds.

Each of the seeds has a different germination period. (Germination is when a seed changes into a plant.)

The radishes only take 4-10 days. The lettuce and the broccoli take 7-14 days and the tomato plants take 14-21 days. 

Now we have to take special care of our seeds so that we can observe the changes. Our seeds will need water and sunlight so that they can grow. 

We will keep you updated as the changes start to happen.
