Bubbles had been visiting the plants regularly and giving the other bears updates on how the plants were growing, right from when there was only a little tiny green leaf in each pot. Now they look really good and Bubbles is very pleased! He had looked after them very well, watering them and making sure they didn't get too hot (or too cold) in the greenhouse.
Tommy was much more interested in the strawberry plants they had planted - the plants already have very small fruit on them but it is not quite ripe yet. Tommy wanted to try one anyway, so the other bears let him, but he declared it very hard and very bitter! Yes, Tommy, you have to wait until they are red all over and ripe before you eat them!
They also had a look round at some of the other seeds they had sown. They had planted some seeds for salads in their salad trough - and there they were - little tiny radish, beetroot, lettuce and rocket plants. No, Tommy, still not ready to eat yet!
