Sustainable+Growing+System+Project

As we learn about the needs of living things, you are challenged to design and build an indoor growing system which would fit into a limited space and use the least input of resources possible. This project incorporates many life science concepts, including nutrient cycles and the needs of living things, as well as elements of engineering design.

We have a great deal to learn from each other, so as your group works on creating and monitoring your indoor lettuce garden and indoor composter, you should be sharing your observations with the class. Sharing our observations will help us develop our ideas about what makes growing and composting systems thrive.

We will share our observations through a wiki that your group will create. About once a week, your group will get time to make observations, including photographs of your systems.
