HW 8 - Growing Our Own Food


          This is what would have happened if I had any agricultural skill, but I do not. The true story of the sprouts experiment was a mixture of humorous and disappointing. The first few days were fine. I planted the sprouts and took care of them. Then I was told to bring them home for the weekend. Over the weekend I some how lost the sprouts because of my tendency to lose important objects. That was a complete failure. As you told me, I "neglected the little creatures that were depending on me. "This experiment gave me a new appreciation for farmers and even though the goal of growing sprouts was not met I still learned from the project. Although it was late to get school credit for the sprouts, I was determined to grow sprouts.
            The second try also was a total failure. I brought new materials to school and started growing them. After a day they started smelling moldy needed to through them out. I wish I could have done a better job with the experiment. Regardless of the outcome, I still decided to eat sprouts that I bout at the supermarket. I have always loved sprouts and liked having a reason to get them.
