  1. My Kidney Bean Project • By: Taquane • Class: 651

  2. Problem Will a kidney bean grow faster in a pot of soil or in a ziplock bag?

  3. Hypothesis I believe that the kidney bean in the pot will grow faster then the one in the bag because without the nutrients in the soil, the kidney beans will not be able to germinate .

  4. Materials • 1 Pot • 2 soil • 3 ziplock bag • 4 h 2 o water • 5 a grid • 6 tape • 7 red kidney beans • 8 green house • 9 measuring cup

  5. Procedure ( growing beans in a pot) 1 Get a pot and fill it with soil up to the rim. 2 Place the kidney beans in the soil at least 5 cm apart . 3 Cover the beans with soil. 4. Water your plant. 5. Put it in the green house.

  6. Procedure(in the bag) • The first thing I did was ,get a ziplock bag,a towel paper, ruler, tape. • I created a 1cm by 1cm grid on the towel paper. • I placed the beans on the grid by taping them down. • I placed the paper towel in the bag. • I put 2 oz of water in the bag.

  7. Collecting Data…

  8. A bean is the seed of a bean plant. When the seed germinates, or starts to grow, small parts inside the seed grow into the root and stem. Most of the seed is used for food by the young plant. When the plant grows green leaves it begins to make its own food by photosynthesis. Kidney beans develop best in a controlled environment which includes proper moisture and nutrient levels. Data

  9. Data • Kidney beans are often an excellent dietary selection, as they contain no cholesterol. As a source of potassium, kidney beans provide a source of nutrition that is similar to that of a potato, but with only a moderate amount of carbohydrates. Kidney beans also contain trace amounts of iron and calcium.

  10. Conclusion • During my experience I had two plants and I wanted to see which one would grow faster .After a few weeks the plant in the pot was growing the biggest. The one in the bag stopped growing after a few weeks. The plant in the pot started to grow bigger. Based on this project I was able to prove part of my hypothesis. Both plants started to grow at the same time however the plant in the pot survived longer then the one in the bag.
