The day was 10 hours and 36 minutes.   Post was at 6pm on Sunday October 25, 2026. It was 60F.

The day had Clear skies and 5mph wind.

 Throughout my blogs I have made many discoveries.  This week though I made a very interesting discovery.  I have learned that the poison ivy is very interconnected in the roots to other connected areas of poison ivy.   In my experiments I made clear the spot of the root by clearing the area and digging just so I could see the root.  I then sprayed the root.   Realizing that the poison I had said that it targets roots, I then thought why not spray the root itself to see the results.  When I used a shovel to point out where the poison ivy root was it was very hard,  I tried weaving the shovel in there. After I while I was able to isolated the poison ivy.  The poison ivy almost looked like the roots were death gripping the soil.  It was crazy cool when I found out how hard it was get even close to the poison ivy.   I sprayed the roots and thought that this would be an excellent way to get rid of the poison ivy.  Then it will stop its roots and how far is sprawls out in the dirt.


What this means for me is that I have to look into the future for getting rid of poison ivy I will have to figure out a way to make the poison ivy disconnected from the others.  I really think that I can solve this issue that I am having with the poison ivy.    If I spray areas then I can not only stop certain plants but block there entire interconnected system.


Today's climate was really interesting, I feel like everything was either losing its color or gaining more of it.   Some leaves had a very fast glowing green to brown and dead.  I would say the majority of the plants in my area are on the yellow stage,  I saw a few red but only a few.  The air felt drier today.  It was really a spectacular fall day!










Below is Poison Ivy, I explained this in my last blog but poison ivy decays faster. Do you notice how the poison ivy is yellow and everything else is green.  This is very interesting, if you want to know more details check out my past blog on it.

    Beautiful pics! You're doing great thinking through and researching some of the poison ivy info. Keep looking at the other things around you, too!

 In studying my environment I have made many discoveries on my how my plants are affected by their environment. I have been researching poison ivy and how to kill it.  In been studying it I have learned that the poison ivy reacts to poison.  I took a deep analysis on the poison ivy in my area and saw that it was not only on the ground but on huge thick vines climbing trees.   I also noticed a dead tree with the start of the vine still standing.  I am discovering how hazardous poison ivy is how it is spread about everywhere. When I walked it was very hard not to stand on poison ivy.  There were no that many changes since the last time that I checked my area, the environment is about all the same.   The one difference I would note is that because it gets dark quicker it then causes the the things that are nocturnal come alive earlier.  I hear crickets and that croaks and rustling,  the area is a lot more active in the night. In my exp...

  Experimental Design Diagram Template       State your question:   How does Poison Ivy grow and what makes poison Ivy decay? Research to find quality background information on things already known about the relationship between your chosen variables.  Always be thinking in terms of CLAIM, EVIDENCE, REASONING! Based on your own background knowledge and your research, make your prediction (What do you think will happen in the experiment.) If_____I pull the poison ivy weeds out________ Then_____It will grow back________  Because____The roots aren’t fully gone which makes them come back up again_________ Create a data table .     List 5 (at least!) controlled variables important for this specific experiment. Amount of sunlight,  water/moisture, plot surface area,  the start density of poison ivy, all dirt for soil List the materials needed for the experiment.  Waterproof rubber gloves Poison for the poison ivy Thick plasti...
