We have TWO hydroponic systems in our garden. If you have not seen it before, do check them out during your recess time!
These plants in the photos above were about 2 to 3 weeks old. These were taken on 24 June 2021, Thursday. They were the first batch of seedlings growing in our hydroponics garden. Once the seedlings reached the adult stage, we harvested them and distributed to the staffs and students in school, to be used for cooking!
Since then, we have been growing many batches of plants using the hydroponic system.
Do you know what are the different stages the seed goes through before it becomes an adult plant?
Here are the stages:
Germinating the seeds
Transplanting seedlings (young plants)
Harvesting adult plants
1. Germinating seeds
2. Planting seedings
Let's watch how sponges for planting seeds can be prepared and how they can grow without soil but with just water! This video includes both stage 1 (germinating seeds) and stage 2 (planting seeds).
3. Harvesting adult plants
