“Grown” journey. Update 1

It’s day number 6 since I started the challenge, 14 days of growing my food...

By far exceeding my expectations! As I already said, I had never grown anything in my life, but the actual results are making me happy. On day one, I bought the soil on a local plant shop near Dergano metro station. Furthermore, sunflower and watercress seeds in “Greentown grow shop & seed shop” near Porta Venezia. On day 2 I prepared the containers, the soil and put the seeds on the water during the night. During days 3 and 4 I put the seeds in different containers, and I try different experiments with vegetables from the supermarket. I got two containers with watercress, two more with sunflower seeds, I put some potato pieces on soil and some in water, and finally a lettuce heart in water. Watercress began to sprout immediately, and just in a few days, it grows almost 3cm tall and took a beautiful green color.

The lettuce heart as well began to grow its leaves to almost 3cm tall, with a beautiful shape and looking very healthy.

Sunflower seeds are going quite slow, but they started to sprout some little roots. Potatoes, the one in the soil as the other in the water, both are making some little roots and little sprouts, but for now, are not very visible for the camera, I will attach some pictures in the next update.
