Scientific progress

Just an update on our experiments. Our bean seed has sprouted nicely. Tomorrow the kids will draw one more picture showing the progress. Then we're going to plant it in some soil.

You can see how the bean part opened up at the top now and leaves are emerging.

The carnation drinking the yellow water has turned a dull, yellowish color.

And the carnation drinking the red water has at least one flower that has turned a pretty pinkish hue.

I'm not completely sure about the rock candy. The water level is going down some, showing evaporation is happening, but the string doesn't seem to have any crystals on it yet. We'll keep waiting.

Rock candy does take a while... how did it turn out?

ugh, I need to throw it out. It never evaporated, but instead started growing mold. I think I did something wrong.
