Equipment and substances 9 test tubes 4 days malt peas filter paper liquid fertilizer water with sugar stand distilled water colored wax crayon ruler

Pour water into three tubes

Pour liquid fertilizer into next three tubes

Pour water with sugar into last three tubes

Make nine balls of filter paper and put them in a tube, but don’t let them slide down

Put a pea seedling on filter paper ball

Put tubes in the stand in the classroom for a week

After week Observe any changes that occurred in all test tubes with peas seedlings

We measure pea seedlings root length

Tube number FluidIn beginning of the experiment, mm At the end of the experiment, mm 1. Distilled water Distilled water Distilled water Liquid fertilizer Liquid fertilizer Liquid fertilizer Water with sugar Water with sugar Water with sugar 00 We register the results in the table!

Average pea seedling root length Distilled water ( ):3=13.7 mm Liquid fertilizer ( ):3=19.3mm Water with sugar (12+6+0):3=6mm

Average pea seedling root length

Conclusion The best environment for pea seedling is fertilized liquid The worst environment for pea seedling is water with sugar We proved that fertilized liquid is needed for plant to grow!!
