Day 7 of Observations (Day 13 of Plant Life)
The Brassica rapa grew astonishingly fast over the weekend! Quite tall it has grown several more leaves and buds, but the biggest feat of them all is that it has started to grow flowers! These flowers are just buds right now, they yellow of their leaves just visible through the leaves that cover them. The epidermis of the plant has grown thicker it seems and is a very bright shade of green. It is of course expected also, that tertiary roots have taken root at this time. When looking between the leaves and petioles you can see little bumps called nodes in the crevices between leaf and epidermis.
