      It’s not necessairly an experiment, but I like to look at different plant pollens under the microscope and guess what they’re going to look like. It’s a side project I have in my free time at work. I’ve gained quite a collection of pollen images and each one looks different and very funky!

      I went to visit the labs in York (FERA) where all the samples go, taken by plant inspectors and I was able to cut into a nematode egg and see the larvae come out under the microscope. It was disgusting and very cool!
