experiments in nature the cress garden you will need: + + + paper towel, water 1 2 6 1. Tear a paper towel into small pieces. They should be about the size of the plastic dish. Place four or five of the paper pieces in the dish. Open the seed envelope, spread some seeds onto the paper, and drip water onto the towels until they are soaked. 2. Place the plastic dish on the windowsill and observe the seeds every day with the magnifying glass. After about three days, the first sprouts will appear.
experiments in nature what happened? As long as the garden cress seeds are dry, they do not germinate, or start to grow. Only when they come in contact with water will the seeds swell and begin to grow. The seeds contain all the important nourishments that the young plants need for their first growth. The cress will get the rest from the water and the air. Garden cress is very healthy and contains many vitamins that we need daily. In addition, the young sprouts taste very good.
