he used pea plants which had MULTIPLE VISIBLE TRAITS to study and SHORT LIFE CYCLES

1. He used plants that were easily cultivated.
2.He carefully selected traits to be studied( height, seed & flower color.etc.)
3. He was fortunate that the traits he studied bred true, i.e,
were either dominant or recessive.
4. He made thousands of crosses over several years.
5 He used quantitative methods (mathematics) to report his results.
6.Being a Monk, he prayed a lot (It couldn't hurt!).

yes, and the traits that he followed (ie. smooth vs. wrinkled seed coat.. tall vs. short.. etc) followed simple dominant/recessive inheritance. If he attempted to track genes that exhibited incomplete dominance, co-dominance, or multiple alleles goverened such phenoytpes.. he never would've made sense of his data given his frame of mind. Yes it also helped that he fudged the numbers a bit..

He got really lucky in picking traits to study that weren't linked!
...and yes, I believe he cooked his numbers too.

I believe that Mendel doctored his results - this probably helped!
