Green Bean Experiment Results

Last week I shared the procedure for my daughter's Green Bean Science Experiment.  Basically she planted green bean seeds in different cups and watered each cup with different liquids.  Liquids used were water, milk, Powerade, Coke, and orange juice.

Somewhat surprisingly a green bean plant sprouted for each of the liquids as shown in the cups below.

The plants grew best in water, but every liquid worked!  Each day after the green bean plant sprouted she measured the height of the plant.

Awesome!  She had a blast doing this science fair project and is already looking to next year's science fair!  We also observed mold growing in the non-water cups as well as a very stinky smell coming from the milk cups!
