2. Introduction:

Pea plants originated from North America. The species used in this experiment are garden peas. Firstly It is very important to decide what varieties of plants will be experimented before we actually does the experiment. In this experiment the pea plant is chosen because of its certain natural characteristics. Peas are starchy, but high in fiber, protein, vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin K, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, iron, zinc and lutein. The purpose of this lab is to observe how pea plants react to different types of liquid: distilled water, sparkling water, sugar-free diet soda, lemon juice, and tap water.

2. Hypothesis :

I hypothesize that the plant with the less acidic liquid will grow to be the tallest.

3. Materials required:

·       6x6x8 cm planting container

·       paper towel

·       planting soil

·       tap water

·       greenhouse

·       metric ruler

·       Alaskan Peas

·       Soil pot

·       trowel

·       watering can

·       masking tape

---------------------

· Distilled water

·       Sparkling water

·       Sugar-free diet soda

·       Lemon juice

·       Two 250 ml measuring cups

4. Method:

Planting the Pea Plants

1.   Write group members’ names and liquid condition on five different masking tapes.

2.   Stick the tape to the sides of the container.

3.   Put a small paper towel in the bottom of the planting container.

4.   Put a small piece of paper towel at the bottom of each container, so it is less likely that the soil or water will spill out.

5.   Fill container with soil, by using trowel, about half way up the height of the container.

6.   Soak the soil in each container with water from the watering can, until water or soil leaks out of the bottom of the container.

7.   Put three Pea Plant embryos into the soil.

8.   Fill container with more soil, covering the peas, until the container is filled almost to the top with soil, leaving ½ cm of space at the top.

Lemon Juice :

Because the lemon juice have sugar in it, we need to dilute it. If we didn’t dilute, the plants would grow mold from these because of the sugar amounts.

Diluting The Lemon Juice:

1.   Pour 50 ml of lemon juice into the measuring cup.

2.   Pour 200 ml of distilled water into the measuring cup, so that both liquid would equal up to about 250 ml, and so that the ratio between the lemon juice and the water is 1:4.

3.   Stir the diluted lemon juice until mixed up.

Creating The Plant Log:

1.   On a piece of paper, create four columns: Date, Height (mm), Observations, and Which Plant? This will be used as the Plant Log.

Watering and Measuring the Plants

1.   Every other day starting the planting day, for approximately four weeks, measure the height of each plant from the soil to the top of the pea plant, with a metric ruler.

2.   Record this information on the Plant Log.

3.   After measuring, soak the soil in each container with which ever liquid would go in each container (e.g., tap water), until water or soil leaks out the bottom. For the lemon juice, use the diluted liquid that was previously created.

4.   After every watering session, we will store each liquid in the refrigerator, so they will stay moderately fresh.

Result:

Plant heights can be noted in the experimental lab book (in millimeters) and also draw a graph, plant growth (y axis) vs. liquid used (x axis).
