Vinca plants

The experiment is to take 4 Vinci im comprises, which be about the corres kittying size, health, and flowering stages and discovery out which one will grow the best. Each of the prepargons will have 75 ml of a liquid d anyy for 10 days. My Grandma bought them from Loses on September 20, 2011 for me. Breakdown of the plants are as follows simpleness plant will hold up tap peeing. lay A will get draw from the refrigerator. kit and caboodle B will get Lou Ana Pure Vegetable 011. set C will get seraphic tea. We made up a pitcher Just for the experiment, so that It s the same every day.Experiment both day for 10 days put in 75 ml of liquid of a particularised liquid into each plant and overtake which one will grow the best. Hypothesis I deliberate the one with take out is going to grow best of the three, non including the control. Milk is effectual for the body and I think it could also be good for plants. sidereal day Before The Experiment Began Mom got the plants for me from Loses the day in the first place so they were fresh. Also will need 4 Styrofoam plates, 4 equal size containers for the liquids, masking tape, invariable markers, camera, and ruler. 1 . Take the plants to area they are going to e entire time.For me it was the covered lanai in the pricker of our house. 2. Put Styrofoam plates and place one under each plant prevents cross contamination and keeps the table clean. 3. abide roll of masking tape and a permanent marker. 4. Cut tape into 4 equal strips. 5. lettuce each strip with name and put on plant. 6. Collect the four containers for the liquids. 7. Put in inaugural container water from the tap and put lid on it. In 2nd container, poured in 4 cups of milk, in 3rd container made up redolence tea and poured in 4 cups, and in final container poured in 4 cups of vegetable oil.Water and oil containers remained on the counter, and the milk and tea containers were in the refrigerator. twenty-four hour period Of The Experime nt I decided to measure and water my plants before school in the morning and early on the weekends. 1. Day one, I then took pictures of each plant. 2. Then I measured each plant and wrote down the sizes in my Journal. 3. With a measuring cup, I measure out ml (1/C) of each liquid and pour it into the veracious plant. I rinse out the glass cup in between each type of liquid. 4. I Jot down observations on the plants each day in a Journal. 5.I also look at the newspaper to e accurate on the temperatures for the day before and note it in the Journal, along with any weather (like rain, clouds, etc). 6. Repeat steps 1 thru 3 for the next 10 days. September 21, 2011 Day 1 of the Experiment Observations altogether four plants are new, very healthy and have many flowers in antithetical stages of opening. Plants are in original container with Styrofoam plates under them so there is no cross contamination. Plants are in the covered porch area to keep from getting wet from any rain so they will not be contaminated by rain water.

The dying plants have wilted leaves and the flowers are all crumpled up. The dying plants have all shrunk in size. The control plant is healthy green and tall. Plant A- Milk 6 tall Plant 6 h tall Plant C -Sweet Tea 6 h tall consequence OF MY EXPERIMENT The only plant that did well was the one with plain water. My hypothesis was wrong. The milk plant did the beat by far If I was to do this experiment again, I would never, and I mean never, pick milk as one of the liquids.I would like to try some more different liquids, like tap water with oracle grow (fertilizer) and made Cool-Aid, because it is basically water with sugar and food coloring. I would like to see if plant does well with Cool-Aid because it is almost all water and would like to kn ow if the food coloring would change the color of the plant/flowers. I would like to run this experiment in the summer time when it is hotter and they would get more sunlight. Wonder if the failed plants would have died faster in hotter temperatures or if they would have fared better. My other thought on liquids was the try Coca-Cola as one of the liquids.
