    The team grew sprouts from different seeds at home to see if it was possible. They observed that chia seeds sprouted roots fastest after 2 days, while lentils took longer. The wheat seeds failed to sprout and rotted. Over 7 days, the lentils and chia fully germinated, supporting the hypothesis. The project demonstrated the ability to sprout seeds at home with water and sunlight, and observed the emergence of roots and leaves during germination.

    1. Introduction (David y Benjamín)

    Sprouts are germinated seeds of grains and are known for their numerous health benefits.
    They contain a high content of living enzymes that boost metabolic processes and improve
    digestion. For example: “Cancer Protection”; sprouts are a rich source of phytochemicals and
    amino acids, which provide a protective effect against different types of cancer. Sprouts are
    very important sources of protein. They have a detoxifying capacity. All plants in their
    germination process (birth, transformation) have a great regenerative and revitalizing power
    unique to maintain and restore health by purifying the body. A daily serving of sprouts
    provides us with maximum vitality, being part of salads, side dishes, bread or integrating
    dishes that do not have to be subjected to heat.

    2. Objective (Eduardo)

    Make sprouts grow at home by growing with water and gauze.

    3. Problem and hypothesis (David)

    Problem: Is it possible to grow sprouts at home?

    Hypothesis: Our hypothesis is that it is possible, we can make sprouts with water, and
    through the days some roots and leaves will grow.

    4. Materials and procedure (Jennifer )


    Seeds and other materials:
    Menestra (lenteja): Grain: Chía:
    Gazes: Beaker:

    Procedure:

    -The seeds were placed in a glass to calculate their quantity and to make it the same.
    -Then we added a little water and covered it with gazes so that the seeds do not come out
    when the water is added again.
    - Also we turn the glasses so that the water is not retained in the glasses and the seeds can
    grow.
    -After some days to water the seeds of the chia and the menestra they growed up but after a
    few days the grain didn’t grow and it rotted
    5. Results
    We put our jars in a safe place, and check in
    regularly to observe any changes.

    After 2 days:

    We were able to observe how the chia seeds started to sprout some roots.

    After 4 days:

    - We observed how the chia sprouted green roots.


    - The lentil seeds had not yet sprouted roots.
    - The corn seeds started to sprout fungus.

    After 5 days

    - Chia seeds increased their green roots.


    - The corn seeds were completely putrifected by the fungus.
    - The lentils sprouted white roots.

    After 7 days:

    The lentil and chia seeds germinated completely.


    6. Analysis

    We started this experiment and within a few days started to see some
    exciting things. It was also interesting to talk about what was happening
    with the different seeds and how they changed over the duration of the
    experiment.

    - At the moment the chia is the only one that is growing, the others are also growing
    slowly because they have only been there for 2 days.
    - Chia seeds were the fastest to pop a root.
    - Lentil seeds took the longest to pop a root.
    - Wheat seeds failed to germinate and rotted.

    It's amazing to see how the chia starts to sprout root hairs in the jar. Me and my
    classmates enjoyed counting the root hairs we saw every day. It's great fun to
    watch it bloom and test our hypothesis. It is a perfect scientific activity that we did
    in the lab.

    7. Conclusion

    - In conclusion, we could say that it is possible to germinate sprouts at home, with water,
    gauze and patience.
    - We can conclude on the incredible power of water when it transforms dry seeds into small
    germinating plants. In this project, we discover how different seeds grow.
    - We were able to test our hypothesis that seeds will sprout and grow when provided with
    water and the right conditions.
    - When the seeds were given water and sunlight, they sprouted fine roots. The most exciting
    observation was to see the roots emerge first, followed by the appearance of small green
    leaves.
    - This science project is interesting because it allowed us to witness the amazing
    transformation of dried seeds into small living plants. We also learned about the importance
    of water in plant growth.
