• Answer the question you selected for profile question 1 here (300 words):

  A middle school science teacher first sparked my interest in science. Just as he was passionate about his job, I wanted a career that I could be passionate about everyday. Science emerged as my true passion. Perhaps what amplified my interest in science was that there are so many unknowns. In a way, all scientists are explorers and discovering new ideas. I find that makes a science career fun and exciting.

It sounds like you know exactly what you want to do in the future! Experimental Science was actually the course that I took in middle school that helped me get interested in science. The teacher always did all these weird and fun demonstrations that made class fun.

You've got an awesome experimental design. I am very curious to see your results. Feel free to upload pictures of your progress as you go along.

Hi Will and Frank -

Great to meet you!

Sounds like a neat project idea you have lined up. Just curious - how many plant seeds do you plan to have per pot? It might work better to have two pots per treatment (two pots with earthworms and two without). This would give you a couple of replicates per treatment.

I'm curious to see your results!
