Growing Shamrocks: Part Two

Science Corner


RockerTot has been watering his shamrocks daily. He uses the dropper so that he doesn't wash them all away, lol.


Here is a photo of Day 3...


... and here is Day 5.


I'll post another update on Sunday. These things are growing so fast! He's been super excited to see them every morning.

Growing Shamrocks: Part One

Science Corner


>I picked up this shamrock growing kit in the dollar section of Target.


We planted the seeds on the same day that RockerTot couldn't put his magnifying glass down. :)


It came with a tiny (shot glass sized) terra cotta pot, seed packet, dehydrated dirt "tablet" and instructions.


We placed the dirt tablet in a bowl with 3 tablespoons of lukewarm water...


... and it expanded very quickly (less than 90 seconds... we both enjoyed watching it grow as the water was absorbed).


I couldn't take pictures of the sowing of the seeds because I had to be involved, but I can tell you that he planted WAAAAAAAY more than the 10 that were recommended.


We'll update as they grow.
