I love how Wisconsin Fast Plants® used very common plastic materials (deli containers, plastic bottles) to enable you to grow hundreds of plants. Their main focus is on helping teachers explain genetics using hands-on observations and data analysis - super cool! @regina.smart
@ben @Drew @hmw this DIY growth chamber gives “The $50 Classroom Greenhouse” project a run for it’s money - clearly we identified similar requirements from teachers!: https://www.fastplants.org/pdf/grow/light_house_construction.pdf
@nathaliemarsfarm Check out this open-source lesson plan about brassica breeding. Lesson Plan - Investigating Brassicas Around the World with Wisconsin Fast Plants - Open Source Lesson - Google Docs
Lots of “cultivars” have been developed as foods we eat, which are all part of the species of Brassica Rapa, which has half a dozen commonly eaten vegetables. In addition to that, the sister species from the same family/genus is Brassica Oleracea - which contains cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli too! @Jamira
