Sunflower/Tomato attempt

When I received my seed I placed it in a red solo cup filled to the middle with potting soil. Not having success last year in scientific inquiry at my sunflower attempt I tried to give my plant a little more TLC. I poked a few holes in the bottom of my cup for drainage and watered the soil until it was moist. After watering my plant I placed the cup in the corned of my window seal to allow ample sunlight. I would check on my plant daily and water the soil until moist. After about two weeks of watering the top of my soil turned to a light gray and I lost hopes of sprouting. Unfortunately I was unsuccessful again in my attempt to grow a plant. This lab has taught me that if I had to be self sufficient I would not be eating a lot of vegetables.
