Finn and Murray are both big fans of Halloween.  They love dressing up and anything just a bit spooky.  This morning Finn brought in two very healthy looking seedlings.  “They’re Pumpkin plants!” he told us.  We weren’t sure what to do with them so we did some research (i.e. asked Elisabeth!) and found out that we need to grow them  inside for another month before we plant  them out.  Murray and Finn got them ready for re-potting and had a look at the roots- they looked like little white worms.  Murray knew about roots- “The plant uses them to get food to grow,” he said.  After they were planted into nice big pots we tied the stems to a stake to keep them straight.  “If they grow really big we can make pumpkin lanterns!” said Finn.
