Day Fifty-Six Of Growing

Ali's Growing Plant's
Ali: I continued growing my plants and am very saddened to say that this will be the very last blog update. I found this an amazing experience to understand and learn more about plants and how they develop to become a vital part of our world. Today, we finished our backdrop and I have completed putting together our binder. I am very excited for the plant show. My tallest plant now measures in at thirty-seven centimeters in length. Thank you for joining the adventures in our group. Farewell.



Miles:Something that hasn't happened in a while, just happened overnight! My plant grew approximately about 2~2.5cm! My plant is now 9.4cm tall. I'm very
impressed with my carrot. Plants are an amazing creature that helps our environment significantly. Cannot, express my feeling about the growth of my carrots. Again, I'm very proud of my carrots. It's remarkable how a plant can grow overnight. The growth of the carrot got me motivate
d to continue watering my plant and providing them with more solar energy/sunlight.


Nikita: We finished our tri-fold backdrop today during lunch. Everything is coming together nicely. Tomorrow we are all going to dress professionally and promote our nursery at the plant show. I also have to bring in carrots and ranch and Ali is going to bring in the carrot cake. Tonight i am going to select the best plant I have to take in tomorrow for the show! I am very excited!!!

Day Fifty-Five Of Growing

Ali: My plants has continued growing. I have just watered my plants and measured them. My tallest plants is now at a height of thirty-six centimeters in length. Nikita just got the 4-Way Analyzer today and is going to send me the results tomorrow. Our group also met and worked on the backdrop for our project. We are hoping to complete it during lunch at the library and complete our project. We are very proud of our progress. See you tomorrow!

Nikita: Today was a busy day mostly spent in getting stuff together for the plant show. During lunch we worked on our backdrop. We are planning on finishing it tomorrow at lunch. I got the 4-way analyzer today to test our soil. I will do the tests today and send the results to Ali because he is in charge. I also am going to make the tabs to put in the soil. We only have a few more things left to do before we will be all done for the plant show!


Miles:
Today, I noticed that my carrot has extended their leaves, in order to receive maximum amount of sunlight. They also started to grow another stem that grows right between
two stems. It was very interesting how these plants were adapting to the environment.
A slow movement/growth, but very interesting. As always, I'm giving my plant half a cup of water and providing them with plenty of solar energy from my lamp.

Day Fifty-Four Of Growing

Ali's Growing Plants
Ali: I continued growing my plants. I also watered my plants with their alloted amount of daily water. I just measured my plants and saw that the longest one of my plants measured in at thirty-five centimeters in length. I hope that my plants can continue growing. Adam brought the printed out brochure for our project today, meaning that once Nikita brings the cover, our project will be complete. I cannot wait to see our finished product. See you tomorrow!


Nikita: We are almost done with everything for the plant show! We also decided to make a poster board backdrop to enhance the presentation of our plants. We talked about who should bring in the plants for the plant show. Adam and Ali's plants are doing quite well so most likely they will be bringing in the plants for the three bigger cups. Me and Miles will be bringing in our plants for the three smaller cups. The plant show is going to be exciting!

Miles: The plant show is this Friday and our group seems to be very prepared for the plant show. We made a poster board to present our plant. All the buisness cards and brochures are made. For the plant show, Ali and Adam decided to bring plants for the bigger cups and Nikita and I decided to bring plants for the smaller cups. We've been preparing for this plant show for about a month, so I hope our group's presentation will be nice and smooth.

Adam: Today we decided to make our project mire informative and appealing. We will make a tri-fold and business cards.

Ali: My plants have continued to grow, and I have also continued to water them daily. My tallest plant is still thirty-four centimeters in length. After going to the library, we managed to complete the grower's guide for our consumers.

Adam will take the brochure file home to print and bring it back to school on Monday. We will continue to finish everything needed for our project to be effective. See you tomorrow!

Nikita: The meeting at the library was very productive yesterday. We finished the brochure which looks very good! Also, we realized that we were missing one of the macroscopic diagrams so I am going to do that. We dont have that much left to do! i think we are in good shape for the plant show. My plants are also doing fine!

Day Fifty Of Growing

Ali's Growing Plants
Ali: My plants have continued growing, and I have also continued providing my plants with their daily alloted amount of water. After measuring my plants, I noticed that my plant light still remaining off has limited growth, with my plants still at thirty-three centimeters. I will probably turn on my light tonight. Our group met during lunch and decided that the brochure will be completed on Saturday at the library. See you tomorrow!

Nikita: My plants are doing well! Today we met at lunch and decided that the brochure should be finished at the library this Saturday. We will all work on it and contribute equally. As for my plants, I am watering them daily and I am rotating the pot around everyday so that the plants dont lean too much on much side.
