  2. Project Summary • Do plants fed with fertilizer grow better than plants fed with just water? • [Objective] Discover which produces a better result through several tests.  • [Hypothesis] Plants fed with the fertilizer will do better. • [Null] There will be no change. • [Accomplish] By setting up an experiment testing the two variables. • [Outcome] Expect fertilized plants to do better.

  3. Introduction/Background • Author: Mikkelsen, Robert L. • Journal of Plant Nutrition. • The article’s title: Using tobacco by-products as a nitrogen source for container-grown houseplants. August 2003. 26 (8).

  4. Continued • Author Affiliation: Department of Soil Science, North Carolina State University in Raleigh, NC. • The experiment was designed to evaluate the use Nicotianatabacum L., which is a by-product of tobacco. • Do plants grow better when fed with this by-product than those grown with ordinary water or a liquid feed?

  5. Continued • The objective is prove or disprove that Nicodtianatobacum L. is better than organic fertilizers. • The methods include: A)Setting up an experiment with three sets of plants for 8 weeks. B) Introducing one set of plants to the Nicotianatobacum L. another to water, and another to organic fertilizer.

  6. Objective/Hypothesis/Null • The proposal is that the miracle grow formula will cause a more accelerated growth rate, more color, and a better bloom than the plant fed with the neutral water formula. • The [Null] would be that there was no change in the plants growth between the two. • [Objective] Hopefully get a clear result finding if fertilizer makes a difference.

  7. Methods and Materials

  8. Data Configuration • Statistical Test Include: • T-test • Variance/Mean • G-test • Water Density Test

  9. Expected Result and Benefits • The expected result is the fertilizer will increase the growth and volatility of the plant. • The plant would overall be healthier and produce a better result.

  10. Budget • Expenses Include: • Miracle Grow Solution • Plastic Cups • Plant Light • Two Containers for solution • Around 30 Marigold Seeds • Potting soil • Pencil, Paper, Word Programs, Computer, ect. • Total: Around 100 Dollars.

  11. The End
