Jonathan and Kayla’s group was to take off the net from the apple trees; they used scissors to help them take the net off easier and faster. And by doing this it helps the trees grow and it gives the tree more space. Something they found interesting was that it was really relaxing and calming. Something they found challenging was taking off the net because the net was stuck on the branches and it wouldn’t get off easily and there were bees on the tree and it made their job harder. The second task was to plant broccoli seedlings one feet apart from each other and they used a trowel and bone meal for the plants. And Jonathan planted Delphines with a trowel. And by separating them it would give them more space to grow. Something that Kayla and Jonathan found interesting was it was fun because it was a hands on activity. Another thing that they found that was challenging was taking out the plants from the six pack.
Katie and Sherlyn’s task was to remove plants with a pointed shovel. They did this because the plants were old and they needed more space to plant new plants. One thing that they thought that was fun was transplanting and planting new plants. One thing that they found challenging was removing the plants because they were really big and stuck to the dirt. The second task they were given was planting seedlings using their hands, trowels and bone meal. By doing this the seedlings have a bigger space to grow and it gives them more nutrients. One thing they found that was fun was that the task was a hands on activity. Another thing that they found really challenging about the task was that they had to be careful and not damage the plants
