In this plant biology science project, you will experiment with the wick system and perform your own hydroponics experiment. You will compare the growth rate of basil or lettuce seeds grown hydroponically, one set with nutrient-rich water and the other with plain water.
Garden and grow plants in all sorts of ways--in different light, soils, water, and more. Test how fruits ripen, plant seeds, grow a garden in water, or start with plantlets rather than seed. Learn to measure plant growth accurately.
In this project, you tried hydroponics—the process of growing plants in nutrient-rich water. In hydroponics, the plant grows in a medium that retains moisture but does not contain nutrients. Instead, the nutrients are mixed into the water.
21 lip 2017 · Make sure to choose fast-growing plants for your science experiment--unless you plan on spending months taking data. Examples of fast-growing plants are marigolds, zinnias, sunflowers, radishes, beans, cucumbers and cress.
For example, water all the plants with plain water, but try varying the amount of light they get. Or try growing one plant in a warm spot and another in a cold spot. Try it and see what happens!
Water is a critical element for plant growth. All water used by land plants is absorbed from the soil by roots through osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of a solvent (e.g.water) across a semipermeable membrane from low solute (e.g.salt) concentration towards higher solute concentration.
Primary science investigations with plants. A collection of investigations around the topic of plants, looking at life cycles, factors affecting growth, parts of a plant, composting and plants that we eat. Investigations provided by Science & Plants for Schools (SAPS) are: Holly leaves: investigate questions about holly leaves.
