3. Question
Which plant grows best under artificial light?

4. Hypothesis
My hypothesis is that corn will grow the best, because the corn seeds are the biggest.

5. Materials 5 corn seeds potting soil 5 oat seeds 1 tablespoon
5 soy bean seeds
three small pieces of paper to write the names of the seeds on
grow light
warm water

6. Procedures
Write the names of soy beans, oats, and corn on three pieces of paper
Put 6cm of potting soil in a seed tray (48cm by 32cm)
Plant 5 of each seed in the seed tray
Put a grow light 29cm over the soil

9. Explanation of Chart & Graph
All of the seeds started growing during the first 5 days. The corn hardly grew the first 5 days of my project. Soybeans and Oats were about the same height during the end of my project.

10. Seedlings Growing Under Artificial Light

11. Conclusion
I was wrong! The corn grew the least! The soybeans grew the best. After watching for a few days, I thought oats would grow best , but it came in 2nd. Soybeans and oats grew very fast. Corn did not grow very fast at all. Nothing went wrong with my experiment.
