My experiment was to test to see weather the container makes a difference on how a plant grows.
Pictures of the plant I planted in soil
Results
As you can see all the plants grew especially the small container.
Problems
One problem that we had halfway through our experiment some people knocked our terracotta pot, so we had to only use one seed because the other one fell down the deck.
Another problem is that someone took the watering bottle home and we had to use a yogurt container.
Things I would do differently next time
Change the different types of pots.
Possible further studies
I could keep going and see what one grows the most in 2 months.
Since we are doing our theme on plants we decided to take one apart and put them on our blog here is what we are doing.
We had to dissect a flower. This is what we ended up with.
Sepals Petals Anther Stamen
Stamen: This is in the middle of the carpels and is different to the carpels.
Anther: The part where bees and wasps get their pollen from.
Petals: The part that is the prettiest part of the flower, it opens out so the anthers and the carpel are in the middle.
Carpel: Carpels surround the Stamen and is different to the Stamen.
From the past couple of weeks our classroom has been doing an experiment on plants this is the progress so far
This is our medium plastic container as you can see it has grown allot since the last update it is now about 5-10 cm tall.
This is our shoe box and the box is actually ripping these have not grown at all. What a shame.
These ones are immaculate they have grown a lot about 5 cm.
These ones are like the shoe box grown just a little bit but not much.
In our theme work we have made experiments on plants.
This is what we started with
This Term our topic is plants and we have been planting our seeds have a look.
Aim: To see if a plant will grow with a small container
Prediction: We think our plant will grow in a big container
Procedure:
1. Get 4 containers ( small plastic container, Medium plastic container, shoe box, terracotta pot.
2. Put 2 seeds in each container just on top of the soil.
3. Place them outside under shelter.
4. At night when we get let go put them inside.
5. In the morning put them back outside repeat until they die.
6. Water plants with the same amount everyday
This is the progress it has made
