Blue_true's JournalThe ginger shoot phenomena.
All of us who have had a garden where we planted seeds. The plant that springs from the seed breaks the soil and grow upward.
I am a reasonably good cook, but sometimes I get bored with eating certain things or get outright lazy.
I recently let some fresh ginger sit around in a container instead of using it. Of course, over a month or so, some of the ginger began sprouting. One sprout in particular caught my attention because it was the only one that sprouted toward the side-bottom of the container. The others came from ginger that was turned upward at the start.
The sprout from the nodule that was turned sideways-down over a period of a few days made a 90 degree turn so that it was not facing skyward.
Did the shoot turn skyward because light is there, or did it turn skyward because the structure of new (fresh) plant growth is programmed to move opposite the direction of gravity for a period of time?
Has anyone heard from the Sleeping Saint, sorry, Mike Pence
Since Nancy Pelosi put a beatdown on his boss?
LeBron James.
Anyone that claim that he does not make a team better need to shut up. He is making the Lakers respectable, and right now in a playoff spot. If he does not get injured, my money is on the team making the playoffs. He is making marginal and young players better and the team is improving week by week.
