Science of Mars Task #2 Growing Seedlings

Last week we planted beans. well not planted but put them in a beaker with a wet paper towel. I was in a group with Kyle. 

Today we looked at the beans again and for some reason mine was moldy. Mine and Kyle's were at the same level and for some reason, Kyle's didn't go moldy.

I think it went moldy because there was too much water and the water drowned it, and then the water evaporated and the bean was exposed to air.

This is Kyle's bean 
And this is My bean.

Warning (Some viewers may find images disturbing)

  1. Interesting thinking on why yours didn't grow. Well done

  2. I don't know why it didn't grow because it has been at the same height at Kyle's the whole time.

    And the water smells rank. I gagged a lot.

    1. You make me laugh :). Sometimes things just don't want to grow. Think of a packet of the potatoes you have just grown. You and Hayley both started off with one seed potato but there was quite a difference in size and amounts, despite you giving them the same attention.

  3. Great explanation Dylan. I guess you were the unlucky one who chose the bad bean. I love your warning re the picture
