My teacher rejected my other idea of plant cloning because we are not allowed to clone. Do you have any ideas of what I can do? I enjoy a challenge, so I need a project idea that would be at least a little difficult.

mowing it regularly, and if you have acres of it, and if you harvest it and grind it to flour, could you make edible bread out of common grass...?

Yes, I KNOW that wheat, oats, rye, corn, etc., are better and have been bred (no pun intended) for the purpose. But would it work? Anybody know or heard of anyone who's tried it? Would it taste nasty...? I know cows, horses, etc, will eat it, but I don't think they have very discriminating palates.

I don't have the time or space to experiment with this. Please, serious answers only! Thanks.

Suppose you provide some fruit or vegetable plants with sunlamps to provide sufficient light and fertilize the soil to provide sufficient nutrients.

BUT-- cycle the lights on and off on a faster schedule than 24 hours. Say, a 6 hour day/6 hour night, giving them all the light and nutrients in 12 hours they'd get in an ordinary 24 hour cycle.

Can we get plants to 'accelerate' their growth/ growing season...? Plants don't need to 'sleep', do they...?

I imagine they might only produce stunted or dwarf fruits or vegetables, but how much could we speed up their growth? Shorten the growing season...? Anybody know of any research on this?

If this isn't clear, ask and I'll provide more details.

Please, serious answers only! thanks!

I don't know what this is! I found it on the floor of the sub tropical rain forest next to a river just outside Whangerei in New Zealand. My guess was some kind of fungus - any ideas?
