| Experimental Design |
We want to see how drought-resistant ryegrass and millet are.
You will need these materials;
6 planting pots
a measuring cup, or something used to measure liquid, for the ryegrass we are using 35 ounces of water, and for the millet, we will use 100 ml of water. Then we slowly decrease the amount of water the plant gets by 50ml and 25ml
6 cups of planting soil with miracle growth.
Steps:
1. Put your 2 cups of planting soil in each pot
2. Plant the 2 seeds for the millet a half-inch apart and for the ryegrass, we will plant a tablespoon of the grass seeds
3.Then for the water, we will give the amount of water thay proffer of the 4 days where not hear. |
| Conclusion |
Our conclusion was “We think after we get to a quarter down from the plant's preferred amount of water it will start to wilt but not completely die. we think millet will survive longer than the Ryegrass.” but we were not correct. The results were not what we expected to see, the avg height where shocking, the 100ml’s came out healthy the avg heights of the millet was 9, 11, 10, 12, 16.3 cm, and the ryegrass was 7, 10.3, 10.3, 4, 4, 12, 12.5, 13 cm and the 50ml’s came out healthy as well as the avg for the millet 7, 9, 9.5, 10, 15.5, 17.5, 18, 18.5, and then the ryegrass avg height is 4.1, 4.1, 9.5, 10, then there was an error than 11.9, 12, 12.5, lastly the 25ml millet 1.5, 9, 11, 11, 15, 18.5, 20, 20.5, then the ryegrass was 4.1, 4.1, 10, 10.5, 10.5, 11, 13.6, 14 and that's all. also, we had a lot of errors in this experiment as well, times tips of the plants would get broken off. In conclusion, we have taken a lot from this experiment. |
