Wisconsin Fast Plants Project

The Rapid Cycling Brassica rapa or Wisconsin Fast Plant are plants genetically designed to grow at a rapid rate so students can study and observe them. To plant a RCBr and effectively record the data, one needs a four quad pot. It starts out as a wick in each quad to soak up the water into the soil. Then soil and fertilizer pellets. Thirdly, more soil and seeds. Finally, more soil and water to top …showed first 75 words of 477 total…

Even the organisms that eat the plants help it out in the long run. Without them, the species would become overpopulated and there would not be enough nutrients and room for them to survive. The Wisconsin Fast Plant Projects objectives were to observe the germination, pollination, and fruiting of the plant and to record all of the data.
