Germinating Seeds....did yours change???



As part of one of our class experiments, we were told to take about 10 seeds of lettuce to germinate. We had to take a papertowel and wet it. Then we were told to place the seeds in them and keep them in a plastic baggie. The rules were to check it everyday, keep the papertowel moist, and take care of them. So that is what I am doing. I was going to separate them and keep one in light and one in dark, but I read in our text that it doesn't really matter. So it has been 5 days now, and the seeds finally are starting to do something!!! As I opened the papertowel, I noticed there is a bit of a yellow colored stain from some of the seeds. Also I noticed that some seeds appear to be spliting open. I cannot wait to see what's going to happen with them!!! I will post again in a couple more days
