I’m looking for suggestions for our school garden bed project! Instead of an exam, we’ll be working in groups for our Biology class. Each group will be assigned a garden bed that measures approximately 2 × 1.5 meters, and there will be four of us sharing each bed. We’ll collaborate on preparing the bed, but we’ll need to present our individual contributions separately.
What do you think we should plant? I’d love to hear your ideas!
I’m considering majoring in forensic science when I head to college, but I’m unsure about my current class selections. I’m a junior in my second semester, and as I look at colleges, I realize that I might not have taken the right courses to prepare for this major. Since forensic science relies heavily on biology […]
I’m truly amazed. The person who thought of this idea really missed the mark!
I’m really stressed right now; my math grade is only a 70. I don’t know what to do anymore.
That sounds like a fun and educational project! Here are a few ideas for what you could plant in your school garden bed:
Tomatoes: If you have enough sunlight, cherry or grape tomatoes are easy and productive.
Herbs:
Cilantro: Great for culinary uses and can attract beneficial insects.
Flowers:
Zinnias: Vibrant colors and attract pollinators.
Companion Planting: You might consider mixing plants for better growth. For example, tomatoes and basil grow well together, or you could plant marigolds alongside vegetables to deter pests.
Pollinator Attractants: Including flowers or plants that attract pollinators can be beneficial. Consider planting lavender or bee balm.
Native Plants: Depending on your location, researching local native plants can provide a low-maintenance option that supports local wildlife.
Make sure to consider the sunlight, watering needs, and growth habits of the plants you choose, as well as any group preferences regarding vegetables, herbs, or flowers. Good luck with your garden project!
