Mrs. Williams' 1st grade class started growing mini cucumber seeds in their pods on Tuesday, February 17. They started to sprout in just days. Ms. Petrie's 2nd grade class transplanted 10 of the pods into the hydroponics lab on February 26. They survived the weekend and they transplanted 20 more pods on March 2. Ms. Petrie has learned how to work the pumps and drain system and has a student refill the reservoir every morning, since the light at night is evaporating the water. We are so excited to keep logging in our journals so see when we harvest our first batch of cucumbers to add to our lunches.
