Due to factors that could negatively affect my project, I had to create an additional procedure. Since lima bean seeds require maximum sunlight in order to germinate, I would have to move my planting cups around my backyard throughout the day in order for them to germinate in favorable conditions. The cause of this is the fact that the sun shines in different areas of my backyard throughout the day. Consequently, I created a garden to make moving the planting cups around simpler. If there is a certain spot you plan to plant your lima bean seeds that constantly has sun throughout the day, this portion of the procedure is not necessary.
Building a Portable Garden:
Take a piece of wood and place the planting cups together in …show more content…
For instance, your three small lima bean seeds will be one size, your medium-sized lima bean seeds will be slightly larger, and your larger lima bean seeds will be the largest. Make sure your lima bean seeds are measured in millimeters.
Carefully pour planting soil into your planting cups until they are halfway full and the nail is no longer visible.
Place your portable garden beneath a faucet and add water to each of the planting cups so the soil is moist and favorable for germination.
After you have added water to the soil, take your lima beans and place them in the center of each planting cup in their appropriate group. The three small lima bean seeds will be in their group, the medium-sized lima bean seeds will be in their group, and the large lima bean seeds will be in their group. Since there are three seeds, there should be three planting cups in each group. Once you have placed the seeds in the planting cups accordingly, label the planting cups so you know which planting cup contains which seed. Furthermore, be sure to label seed number one, two, and three on the planting cups in each
