How it Works:

What’s going on? Germination! That means the plant is sprouting it’s roots. Awesome! Usually, you can’t see the roots sprout when the seed is under soil, but since there is no soil in this experiment you can see the whole process.

Extra Experiments:

1. 1. Prepare two bean plants, but put one in a sunny area and one in a dark area. Observe their similarities and differences and chart them down.
   2. Chart your bean plant’s growth each day using a ruler.
   3. After 2 weeks, move your bean plant to some soil. Don’t forget to water it and give it some sun!
