COMPARING STEM GROWTH TO ROOT GROWTH THE DAILY ROOT-RACE Which grows faster; stems or roots? We will germinate some beans on graph paper which has been placed on top of several sheets of wet newspaper. We'll cover the seeds with muslin and roll it up, and keep the newspaper wet. Each day, we will carefully unroll the soilless garden, to check the rate of germination. When the seed first shows stem and root, we will mark, very carefully, the graph paper beside the tip of the stem and beside the tip of the root. Each day, we will unroll the garden, and mark the paper beside the tips of stem and root. This way, we can tell on which days there is the most growth. We can also tell if the stem grows faster or slower than the root. We can make a graph to show, side by side, the growth of the stem and the root. The stem calls this "the root-race."
