@hmcnallie Hi Heather! We just saw this comment and have sent you an email. We apologize for the delay!

@1stTheSeed My 6th-8th graders LOVED this experiment! We submitted our results weeks ago but haven't received a reply regarding which test group the V and W seeds belonged to. Can you help me send off my future scientists into a summer of experimentation?
