As a group, we recently conducted an experiment that investigated the porosity and permeability of different soil samples. Porosity is how much water drains through a soil. Permeability is how fast water drains through a soil.
Which soil sample (sand, topsoil, or schoolyard dirt) would you recommend to Dr. Chambers for our community garden? Why did you choose this type of soil?

ReplyDeletei think we should do topsoil
ReplyDeletefuzzy
Hey Frizell. Why do you think we should use topsoil?
Delete-Coach C.
I agree,we should use topsoil its less porous which gives the plants more water
Delete-WILL
me to because it looks healthier
Deletei think your wrong
Deletewell i think we should do something diffrent
DeleteMe too i think we should do topsoil-marcquise
ReplyDeleteI think we should do topsoil because it has more porous and it has more space
ReplyDelete-marcquise
that is very good
Deletegustavo c
Marcquise, great point, but do you think a soil that let's all the water drain through is good for plants?
Delete-Coach C.
i thing topsoil would be best to grow a graden because i drains more water
ReplyDeleteFor me I pick sand because sand went through the fastest and I test it out so I pick sand.

I think top soil will be the best to grow a garden because it has more space for water to go threw and the water drains through faster.

I think we should use top soil because it takes more time for water to pass through.thus,providing more water for the plants
ReplyDelete-WILL
Hey Will! Great point, we want to make sure our plants have enough water remain in the soil to help them grow!
Delete-Coach C.
hey will love that answer!

to me i think we should try the topsoil because the sand we cant use DEFINETLY and the schoolyard dirt is little too dry!and what im saying is that the topsoil is more moist for the roots and the plant can grow more leaves and plant life for the earth to not be full of drugs and smoke in the air mr.redden told me that pretend that your a thousand people that that one good thing that you do can change the whole community

hey Elijah! i like that answer the more we use smoke the more we can kill plants and if we kill plants we can not live on earth because we wont have air or atmospher.
Deletebest answer i've ever seen
Delete-irayna c. ^
i think the top soil would recomend dr chambers for our community garden because the soil is more porus and the soil had the greaT
ReplyDeletewater that come out so i hope its TOP SOIL.

I THING YOUR RIGHT ANTHONY
DeleteGUSTAVO
i know he is that a really strong statement
DeleteFrizell Anderson
my answer is topsoil, because sand, nothing can grow in it and school yard dirt has too much open space. that's why i choose topsoil
ReplyDelete-irayna c.
I CHOOSE SCHOOL YARD DIRT, BECAUSE THE SOIL WILL OBSERVED THE WATER BETTER THAN SAND OR TOPSOIL
ReplyDeleteGUSTAVO C
Deletei think sy dirt is a great sorse of dirt we shound get in are garden thats realy nise of you
