Raising Seeds

Aim: To look at the different growing conditions and how these affect the growth of seeds.

Method:

We worked in groups of 3-4 students
Potting mix was put into the cups.
The cups were planted with radish seeds
Each cup had different growing conditions

Cup 1 - Normal
Cup 2 - Red cellophane
Cup 3 - Over watered
Cup 4 - Under watered or green cellophane

The plant grew in their cups for 10 days before they were measured

1. bl - 60.9mm
2. ow - 10mm
3. rl - 70mm
4. normal - 10.5mm
5.cl - 60mm

Therefore the best growing condition is the cup with the red cellophane because the plant grew to 70mm
