Daily growth of Bean Plants?

Question

So for my Grade 11 Biology Culminating Activity, I had to grow 15 bean plants over a period of 1 month. I had to use one variable per 5 plants. I chose to use the amount of water and I used 5 mL for 5 plants, 10 mL for 5 plants, and 15mL for the other 5 plants. My project failed miserably as NONE of my plants grew. Could somebody please do me a GIANT favor and tell me what you think the daily growth per variable would be? (i.e. How much would the 5mL plants grow per day, 10mL, and 15mL as well.)

I would appreciate this ASTRONOMICALLY! Thank-you in advance.

Answer 1

When an experiment fails to produce results that confirm the hypothesis, you need to analyze the failure of the experiment. Is it possible that all three amounts of water were too little for the plants to survive? Could some other factor in the environment have prevented growth, such as soil pH, avaible sunlight, or air quality?

You can't get legitimate results by making up measurements. You need to take a rough draft of your results with an analysis such as I described above, and you need to take that to your teacher and ask what you should do in light of your experiment's failure to yield measurable results.

Answer 2

just report that none grew. its an experiment.
