The Effects of Miracle Gro 1x on the Germination of Bush Beans
Introduction: In our experiment we studied the effects of Miracle Gro 1x on 10 Phaseolus vulgaris beans (Bush Beans). We wanted to find out if Miracle Gro 1x would help the seeds Germinate faster than water.
1. Question: Does Miracle Grow 1x help germinate bush beans faster than water?
2. Hypothesis: If the Bush Beans are treated with Miracle Gro 1x they will grow faster than if they were treated with water because Miracle Gro 1x contains mineral nutrients for the plant.
Materials: You will need 20 Phaseolus vulgaris beans (Bush Beans) and two petri dishes with transparent lids. You will need Eye dropper to administer 10ml of the experimental treatment, Miracle Gro 1x and the
control treatment of water on the beans. You will need two filter papers to but on in the petri dishes. You will need a sharpie to label each petri dish and Laboratory film to secure the lids to the petri dishes. The control temperature of the environment was 98 degrees and you will need a source of constant light. Methods: First we gathered all the materials need to carry out the experiment. We placed filter papers in each petri dish, then placed 10 Bush beans in each petri dish. After that we used an eye dropper to administer 10ml of Miracle Gro 1x on one petri dish, and 10ml of water on the other petri dish. After we added the solution to the petri dishes, we place the lids on the petri dishes. Then we took Laboratory film and secure the lids so it will not be effected by outside forces. Then we took a sharpie and label each petri dish. We labeled the one with the Miracle Gro 1x the experimental dish and the other with the water, the control dish. Then we placed it in an environment where there was constant light and the temperature was kept roughly about 98 degrees Fahrenheit. Lastly we recorded the seed germination rate and other observation in each petri dish and we recorded our results. We collected data and recorded it daily for 9 consecutive days. Results: Discussion:
This experiment was performed to test two hypotheses concerning the plant hormone gibberellic acid and a mutant rosette shaped phenotype of the plant Brassica rapa. This experiment was done in order to test the effects o gibberellic acid on plants and its effect on rosette shaped complexes. The two hypotheses in this experiment are as follows: Hypothesis number one states that Gibberellic acid allows for stem elongation in plants. Hypothesis number two. The rosette complex in the rosette phenotype plant contains less gibberellic acid naturally and therefore grows shorter.
Although, this experiment is not concluded outdoors, it is provided with efficient light that promotes growth. It’s provided with soil, seed, fertilizer, water and NaCl solutions, to test how salinity effects plant growth.
We used wheatgrass were 40 wheatgrass seeds, two empty pots, soil, and water. We first added soil for both pots and 20 wheatgrass seeds in each pot. My partner and I decided that we label pot one experiment which is “sugar and water” and pot two control which is “water” only. The experiment was for almost four weeks we had to make sure both get the same room temperature and water, so we can see the results after this amount of time. Both pots had same room temperature so both can have the same amount of sunlight also, the same amount of water which is a glass of water from the sink once a week. In the experiment pot we added a glass of water with one teaspoon of sugar and the control pot glass of water. Every week we used to see both pots grow almost the same. At the end of the experiment, my partner and I measured the length for both plants and we recorded the average for each plant, so we can know the rate of growth
The germinating seeds consumed almost no oxygen throughout the experiment in the 10-degree C water bath. I think that this is because when an organism cools down, all of its cellular functions slow down.
The “Fast Plant” experiment is an observation of a plants growth over the span of twenty-eight days. The objective is to observe how plants grow and use their resources throughout the span of their life. In our lab we observed the Brassica rapa, a herbaceous plant in the mustard family which has a short cycle which makes it a perfect plant to observe in this experiment. Like other plants the Brassica rapa must use the resources in the environment to create energy to complete itʻs life cycle and reproduce. By observing the plant it is easy to see in what organ or function the plant is using itʻs energy and resources and if overtime the resources switch to other part of the plants. By conducting this experiment we are able to observe where and how plants allocate their resources throughout their life by harvesting plants at different points in their life.
eucalyptus oil: 0, 8 and 15 drops. I put 10 seeds in each Petri dish.
One of the most prominent crops in the GMO industry is Bt corn. The Bt pesticide stands for Bacillus Thuringiensis. Scientists transferred the Bt gene into the corn to create a crop that produces its own pesticides. As the corn matures, it grows stronger poi...
Materials used in the experiment included 5-7 g of the potato tissue, 50ml of 2.0M phosphate buffer coffee filter and guaiacol dye.
Although considered faster and cheaper, this approach to providing other alternative resources to food is slowly but significantly drying up our plant and is compromising human health. Because of the increa...
Knife to cut the potato to the correct shape and size for reasons. stated in the method. Tile to not score any school surfaces. Test tubes to hold the potato and solution in. Beaker to alter solution concentration.
I prepared two large test tubes, each should have an inch of KOH pellets on the bottom of the tube. Next, a cotton ball is placed in each of the two test tubes above the KOH to plug the tube. Now one tube is filled to the top with peas, the peas are then removed and weighed to the nearest.1 grams, this is the experimental tube. The control tube is filled with plastic balls to the same height as the experimental tube. Next, a rubber stopper with attached capillary tubing is inserted in each test tube.
Such efficiency will allow for a mass amount of crop production through less water use and provide Mother Nature with enough time to restore what is used in a natural manner, thus disproving Hardin’s fear of running out of the most essential natural resource, water (Gul).

The materials in our project will consist of various items. The main materials used for the experiment are female pig livers, basic beer, hard liquor, red wine. We will also need four buckets to put the alcohol and the livers inside. A knife, and T pins are materials we will need
Breakthrough improvements in the major grain crops have increased world food production dramatically during the last twenty seven years. The advancements in grain production, however, have not brought significant benefits to areas where root crops are the major staples. Therefore, more emphasis should be directed toward such root crops as taro, which is a staple food in many developing nations of Asia, Africa, and the Pacific.
