Planting with Room 8

We are growing strawflowers.  


First we put compost in the flower pots.  Then we got some potting mix.  Harmony helped put the potting mix into our flower pots.  Next we put the seeds in, they looked like tiny ants and sprinkles.  Some looked like 100s and 1000s.   We gave the seeds a little mix, so the seeds could go down into the soil.  


The compost looked like soil.  It smelled like poo.  The compost has got pieces of bark in it.  It made our hands grubby.  The compost pile looked light on the top and dark in the middle.


The potting mix looked dark.  We had to wait for Harmony to help us get the potting mix.  The potting mix didn't smell.
