Kemtecâ„¢ A Space Farm Kit
Grades 4–6
Take a trip into space to understand how we might grow our food in an environment different from our own here on Earth.
The experiments in this kit enable young scientists to germinate seeds in nutrient solutions without using soil.
After the initial germination occurs, students can gently transfer the sprouted seedlings to real soil from our Earthly environment. You’ll need a minimum of 7 days for sprouting seeds prior to replanting.
The kit includes background information about hydroponic cultivation.
Designed for 24 students working in pairs.
Meets NGSS.
