An Experiment Report on Growing Potato Plants

Things prepared

：

a potato that has sprouts

a flower pot with soil

a camera to record progress

Observation

：

Day One

The color of the soil looks darker because I have just watered it. In the center of the pot, I can see a tiny sprout

that has grown from the potato under the soil. I’ll call it Buddy. Buddy is green and yellow. I wonder how fast it will

grow.

Day six

Without much change in the past six days, I finally see some new progress on Buddy as it has grown taller. It’s

exciting to see new life like this. I hope Buddy can grow faster.

Day Eleven

Buddy is getting larger! Three more new sprouts have grown around Buddy! Green leaves have grown on the

new sprouts, but they have not fully grown yet. I guess I need to be a bit more patient.

Day Thirteen

Buddy continues to grow taller. The leaves on the new sprouts have grown a bit. I’m also excited to see more

new sprouts that have grown from under the soil.

Day Fifteen

Finally, the leaves on the other sprouts are 3 cm tall. They’re so green. I hope they will soon grow into new

potatoes.

What I have learned

It’s really interesting to grow potatoes. During these fifteen days, I have learned that growing potato plants needs

plenty of water. If soil is dry, the potato will fail to grow. I have also learned that the temperature needs to be right. If

it is too cold, it won’t grow.

I feel that growing plants is just like trying to succeed with anything in life it takes not only time, but also lots of

efforts and patience.
