Making a Greenhouse 🌱
5th Dec 2025
We carried out an experiment to see how well seeds would grow in a greenhouse. We got plastic cups (transparent and opaque), soil and cress seeds. We filled them with soil. We planted the seeds and added a small amount of water. 💦 Next, we placed cups on top of the cups with soil and sealed them tightly together.
We learned that the plastic cup acted like a greenhouse and trapped heat inside and the cress seeds in the greenhouse grew faster and taller. 🌱
