Measuring the Seeds ~ HSV

Today we got all our seed trays out of the green room and measured how tall they've gotten.  We planted all our seeds on April 1st.
 Herb tray and Vegetable tray
 Corn and Zinnia tray
One of the trays of dahlia tubers


We've been excited to watch the seeds growing, and the corn has gotten really  tall!  Our tallest corn is 13 inches tall already.

 Measuring the growth
 Charting the growth

 The "Rainbow Seeds" aren't doing well :(
 "I'm a Seed!"  Great book!

No picture, but this week it RAINED a lot every day, broke each days record rainfall (by about double!)
 Last week....  It snowed EVERY DAY!
 The week before...  Had one nice sunny DRY day!
Worms!

    Do you have a little greenhouse -- I can't quite tell from the picture? Looks like you are really doing a great job with all of this. I love charting the growth - what a great learning activity!
