1. Adding Lime Juice to Soil DID NOT Increase the Length of the Radish PlantM.Bruss, A.Chada, And S.Brey, Ag food Fun, Hour 5, Denmark Middle School Introduction: Radishes, like all other plants, use carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil to produce sugar through photosynthesis. It takes thirteen days for a radish seed to germinate. Limes contain a high level of PH. We wondered if adding lime juice to a radish plant would make it grow larger. Our hypothesis was adding lime juice to our radish plant would make it grow larger. We thought this would happen because limes have a high level of PH and we thought it would help our radish plant to grow. Discussion & Conclusion: Our hypothesis was that adding lime juice to our radish plant would make it grow larger. Our hypothesis was wrong. The radish plant died. It was not supported by our data. We added three limes to the radish plant. No one temper with your radish plant. By adding a different variable, might of changed the outcome of the plant. Our hypothesis was wrong. It was not supported by our evidence. We could conduct the same experiment on a larger and smaller scale. If we did these we would see if we added too much or not enough lime juice. • Methods: We did the following steps: • We planted 5 radish seeds according to instructions on the packet. Squeezed 3 limes for juice and watered the experimental plant with lime juice. • Every other day , we watered the radish plants with 1 ½ cup of water. The control and the experimental plant both received water. • We observe and watered the plant every other day; writing down progress. • After 4 weeks, we measure the length of each radish. Measuring from the roots to the stem. • Average length of the radishes for the dependent variable was 1.5 cm. and for the independent variable was 0 cm. Results: After 4 weeks, we obtained the following results: Length of Radish Plants cm. The dependent variable grew 1.5 cm. average and the Independent variable grew 0 cm average.
