Today we finished our pumpkin decay experiment. We made final observations on our pumpkin samples. We concluded that to keep a pumpkin from decaying, you can paint it with vaseline or spray it with another sealant. The vaseline acts like a jacket to protect the pumpkin from the air. Take a look at the final pictures...
Who knew that Vaseline would protect a jack-o-lantern? We will definitely try it out on ours this year.
ReplyDeleteSaoirse was raving about this project last night and said she did not know what glue could do to a pumpkin!
