SUCCESS
WITH ALIEN SEEDS
Hello Heidi,
2/15/08 Back in the months before
Christmas, I purchased some odds and ends from you folks both on eBay and
direct. One of those items was the Alien Seeds for my 8 year old son
Connor. He decided to share them with his 3rd grade class about 1.5 weeks
ago, and everyone is participating in growing them :) The teacher decided
they should keep a journal about it, which ironically is a (Project)
"Blue Book"! What a hoot huh? The seeds are home with us for the
next week due to school vacation, so I took some pics of the ones that are
sprouting.

keeping an (almost) daily log. One of his classmates did stop by today,
and she was very excited about how much they had grown in such a short
time (compared to when she last saw them last Friday). My son keeps
wondering what they will turn in to, and if we can eat any alien fruit or
veggies that may sprout".
The seeds indeed look alien!
Bruce writes on 2/29/08: The plants
haven't changed much other than to get taller. They were brought back to
school today to many "oohs" and "aahs" from the
children. I warned the teachers I'd be popping in every once in a while to
take follow up pics for you :)

writes: Connor says that every morning he and his classmates check in on
the plants to see how they are doing, and frequently add their
observations to the Blue Book. He says that students from other
classrooms often stop in to look at them too, because they think it's
pretty cool!

They've posted updates on their own website
too:
