Growing Vegetables In A Root Viewer

I planted carrot seeds, onion seeds and radish seeds in a Deluxe Root Viewer.  I watered it every day and placed it in a south facing window.  The plants grew a little bit every day.  The radish was the first to sprout, followed by the carrot and then the onion.  They were growing slowly, so I moved them to an East facing window.  The plants liked that better.  You can look through the Deluxe Root Viewer to see the roots.  It is really cool.  They go all the way to the bottom of the container.  Pretty soon they will be ready to eat.

I drew a chart to see the growth and chart the height of each plant and how many days they took to grow.  I took pictures along the way.  I made a poster board showing the growth chart and the pictures.  This project was long, but it is worth it.  I can’t wait to eat them.  Here are the pictures:
