Math is for the Plants 2

Author: Qiaochu (Joy) Xu



Let's see what happened in the last two weeks since we water plant the scraps!

















Which plant burgeons first in your small garden?











What shape does lettuce grow into?






What is the earliest evidence of plant growing?













Which plant grow faster than you expected?










Can you graph the growing patterns? 

What do you notice about the growing patterns?

  1. I think if you watch the change over certain period say hours, days with how long in terms of length then setting a pattern of time and growth length you should be able to sketch the graph

  2. Thank you, Kokukunisa! There are some plants that do almost grow as you watch -- some squash seeds on our windowsill, for example. Very cool idea.
