Looking for a Quick Growing Plant

Feb 05, 2006 9 Replies

Hi there.



For a science experiment I am doing with a child, I am looking for a seed that once planted will sprout and grow quickly such that height measurements can be taken. The time frame that I am looking at is 7-9 days. Does anybody know of a suitable seed that we can use? You help is much appreciated.

measurements

radishes

Kidney beans, mung beans, radishes, sweet peas...

Just off the top of my head.

Radishes come to mind

How about crabgrass or chickweed?

Stay away from magic beans, though. Kids love'em, but those magic bean dealers will take you for everything you've got.

Back when I was young and foolish, I lost a good cow that way.

I would like to talk to this Mel M Kelly. It seems we have the same name but I am probably better looing!

Just how do you rate the performance in the loo exactly? :-) Tomes
