THIS IS NOT THE HOMEWORK BLOG. Please see dated post for this week.
Kevin the potato, Day 1: January 12. We created a box maze for our potted potato plant.
There is a hole for sunlight in the upper corner of the box, and one on each of two dividers.
Kevin the potato, Day 7: January 19. Kevin remained in a sealed box for a week. The box is in a greenhouse, just inside a window. There as been a very small amount of growth, and the shoot seems to be oriented (pointed toward) the hole in the divider.

Day 14, January 26. Kevin is still growing, though not dramatically. His sprouts are still heading toward the hole. I plan to buy a growth light to shine on the boxes to maybe speed things along.
Day 21, Feb 2. Kevin is slow growing, but shows growth still. I added some water and put a grow light on him
Day 28L Feb 8. Still slow growing. Maybe he will make it by the end of the semester! :)
