  A scientist always opens to learn, unlearn and relearn.

Hi Team,

Thank You, again! For your information - a hypothesis can't be wrong. Either it is TRUE or FALSE. If a hypothesis is FALSE, we have to reject that, learn from it, and propose a new hypothesis. Remember the famous quote by Thomas Edison “I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”

Good Luck!

Hi Team,

Great work! It is a wonderful experience for me to work with you for the last 1 month. Thank You, everyone!

I have the following comments and question for you-

1. The conclusion says- "Our hypothesis was correct the leaves did grow bigger in the large pot and smaller in the small pot." I am not sure if the measurement are representing the leaf diameter or, the stem length. I guess your measurement and graphs are for plant height (i.e stem length). Please correct me, if I am wrong. 
2. For the future, you should consider measuring all growth parameters including stem length, leaf diameter, and petiole length (if there is). Take a nice representative picture of each with a scale.
3. Did you prepare a poster or presentation of your project?

Good Luck!

Hi Team

Great work! How are the measurements look like? Do you have any predictions if your hypothesis is true or false? What are the things you learned by running this experiment?

Keep up the great work!
