Day 28
The measurements recorded on Day 28 involved choosing 5 seedlings at random in each tray and counting the number of leaves on each. We could then work out an average number of leaves for the seedlings of each tray by dividing the total number of leaves by 5. We recorded this on our measurement chart as you can see from the picture. The trays are still being watered and turned every two days and the Rocket Science teams are doing a great job giving up some of their lunchtimes to come and look after the seedlings. The last measurement will be next week on Day 35 and then we will have to upload the data on to the experiment database with all the other schools and clubs which are taking part. We’re all looking forward to Tim Peake announcing which colour of packet the space seeds were in!
