My beans are doing very well, although one seems to have sprouted slightly more than the other, I wondered if this was because of the conditions for boths beans seem to differ slightly- is one somehow getting more light or salt water than another on the windowledge?
I think perhaps if I carried the experiment out again I would pu them in separate cups and gauge more accurately how much light each bean was getting from it position by the window.
But too late now.
The bean's root is quite long now and looks like it is looking for somewhere to bury itself (looking for soil I suppose) the shoots are green and quite long, in the cup both shoots are growing upwards (towards the light).
I am still feeding with salt water although, because they are not as dehaydrated as they were I am now starting to need to water water the beans less as the cotton wool seems to hold much more moisure which the beans are growing on and I assume taking the saline solution from via their newly grown roots.
I will add some photos- still looking for my camera lead to take pictures so for now I will add what I have found on internet that is quite interesting.
