Microscopy

We looked at our runner bean plants using our digital microscope. We were amazed by what we saw. We saw the veins in the leaves; tiny hairy  leaves that were about to open and  plant roots.  We also looked at the seeds which hadn’t grown, to see if we could suggest what their problem was.  One had become mouldy due to over watering.

Looking at the seed as it emerges from its pod.
This seed had stopped growing.
These roots look amazing!
This seed had turned to mush and went mouldy.
We looked at the veins in the leaf.
We were amazed to see our plants close up. Mrs Arbuckle put the microscope into focus for us.
