Thanks to CaliforniaCarnivores our carnivorous plant collection continues to grow in the #GreeleySRC. These hungry little insect-eating plants not only help control ‘bugs’ in our greenhouse, they can be used to teach about habitat, bogs, the N-cycle, evolution, natural selection,
I raided @JusOlive_Ed’s spare STEAM irrigation parts & upgraded Lauren Loprinzo’s table in the #GreeleySRC! We just need a watering timer. It works pretty well - I bet our Plant Fellows & APES students will improve on this prototype. #Greenhouse #WeAreChappaqua #ScienceWeCanEat
Our ‘determinate tomato’ trials are about to kick-off. Germination rate data will be available soon. Several varieties of Burpee Gardening & Botanical Interests 🌻 going head to head in the #GreeleySRC. #WeAreChappaqua - “Science we can eat!”
