Does Orange Juice effect the Growth Of A Plant? By Jonathan Novella
2
Facts Tropicana Orange Juice (No Pulp) 88% of Orange Juice is water. It takes 12-16 medium oranges to make a 32.oz quart.
3
Purpose The Purpose of this experiment is to find out if Orange juice can be used to increase the height of a plant. If successful this would give many other option to use other than water to grow plants.
4
Methodology There will be 7 similar plants with an approximated height of 5 to 6 inches. There will be a carton of Tropicana Orange juice with no Pulp. I will also have a measuring cup to measure the amount of juice I will be pouring on the plant. I will added ¼ of juice to each of the 7 plant everyday to calculate the length of the growth of all the plants. My goal is to see if there is an effect of the growth of the plant by giving it Orange juice. When I give them orange juice I will leave them near the window (4 in my mother’s room and 3 in my room). From their I will measure the height of all the plants each day by using a 12inch/ 30Cm ruler. There will be 7 similar plants with an approximated height of 5 to 6 inches.

Table: Height of Plants All Plants started within the height of 6in to 7.5in
6
Observation All seven plants started with a healthy and soft soil. All Plants except Plant E grew up to 0.3 inches within the 8 days. In Day 3 and 4, all seven plant’s soil turn into a rough solid. Also all seven plants had a horrible smell and if it would have continue all seven plant would have died within less than a week.
7
Conclusion Does orange Juice effect the grow of a plant? Answer: All the plants except plant E had grew up to 0.2inches but didn’t really have a positive look on the plant. When I started the expirement all 7 plants had a soft and healthy soil but it took less then 3 days to change the soil into a rough solid. I also notice if their was more time. All seven plants would have died due to the roughness of the soil.
