What do I think the items will do ?
-
I belive that the apple or orange will decompose the most.
I belive that the foil and regular chip bag will decompose the least. -
We used shovels, rebar, hammer, stakes, and caution tape. The items we used were reg, chip bag, sun chip bag, paper, cotton fabric, styrfoam, foil, apple, orange.
-
We dug holes in the ground and put the items in the holes. At the end of the 9 weeks we will dig them up and see which one decomposed the most.
-
Today we buried the items and we dug holes about 12 - 6 inches deep depending on what we were buring.
-
I do not think the Styrofoam cup will decompose.
Statistics say that on average it takes 500 years for it to decompose. -

the sun chip bag sais that it is decomposable but I think it will take quite a long time for it to decompose.
-

-
Temp. : Low 28 - high of 80 degrees
Wind : 10 - 28 mphs
Little to no precipatation -
paper takes a while to decompose so in a nine week span it will not decompose. Get a recycling bin and take it to a recycling plant every week or so.
-
Temp. : low 48 - 75
Wind : 11 - 27 mph.
Little to no precipation -
I do not think that this will decompose very much

Little Prectipation -
I think that this will be one of the several that will decompose the most.
-

-
The Paper Decomposed maybe a tenth of the way.

-
The orange was also about Half way decomposed.
-
The reg. Chip bag did not decompose at all . 0%
