The class have defined some very strict rules to make sure the plants in their classroom stay happy and healthy. They decided that plants need a balance of everything, not too much water, not too little sunlight, and you have to keep a watchful eye.
The sunflowers are growing well, the chia seeds and cress burst through the soil but then went leggy and died off, and the runner beans are still trying to grow tall and strong.
Yesterday, the children were plant doctors and observed a selection of plants and succulents to diagnose their problems. Some were brown and crispy, some had soggy soil, and some were lush and growing tall.
The class even wrote an email to Mrs Bartlett with tips on how to keep her plants alive!
