Family Fun had a lot of neat gardening ideas in this last issue. The 2 liter bottle cut in half and inverted was quite clever. I also LOVED this idea. They took a trading card plastic protector, stuck it to the window with little suction cups and grew seeds in it. The girls and I did a little experiment. We put some seeds in paper towels and some in soil. Here is a picture of our results...
The soil seeds grew a lot faster. We talked about how they "should" because of all the nutrients the soil has in it compared to the paper towel. Kaylee carefully scooped them out with a spoon and planted them in cups so that we can continue watching some of the beans grow.
