CSEF · 2003
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals My experiment was to test how pea and radish plants react to different soil amendments, specifically coffee grounds, wood ash, and fresh green avocado leaves. Methods/Materi…
CSEF · 2003
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The purpose of this project is to determine if pressure alone can induce plants to grow with greater efficiency. I believe that in an environment with a higher pressure, the…
CSEF · 2002

CSEF · 2002
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The first part of my project is to determine what causes soft rot on vegetables and which bacteria is the most destructive to the cell walls of the vegetables. Erwinia carot…
CSEF · 2002
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals We are trying to make an alyssum plant photo-luminescent. We believe that this plant, with the proper additives, will become photo-luminescent under a black light. Methods/M…
CSEF · 2002
