What is the safest way to discard the algae string? What concerns should I have if students take it home?

Hi there!

This experiment is safe to dispose of in the regular trash.
I would advise students taking the algae strings home to NOT eat the string.

Otherwise, this experiment doesn't produce anything harmful to students or the environment.

Hope this helps!
