Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of my study was to see if mustard plants could be used for phytoremediation of Zinc. Methods/Materials To study whether zinc can be phytoremdiated, mustard pla…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals Determine whether or not fertilizer added to garden soil will contribute to a greater harvest. Evaluate two types of organic fertilizer - chicken and steer manure. Methods/M…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of my project was to determine which of four hay crops--barley, oats, vetch, or peas--is most tolerant of saline soils. Methods/Materials The different seed ty…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals There are many countries in the world that suffer from infertile or salty soil. This can drastically affect the citizens ability to grow food crops. The basis for this proje…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The main purpose of this project was to show why corn is planted and at certain times of the year. If you plant at the wrong time then it takes longer for the crop to grow o…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals I wanted to find out how temperature affects a plant's ability to transport nutrients. From my research, I learned that transpiration and respiration increase as temperature…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective was to test how the intensity of artificial light affected the growth of sunflower plants. My hypothesis was that the plants closest to the light will grow the…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals I want to determine if there is one color that can be used to paint our cherry trees that will protect them from sunburn without causing harvest delays. Methods/Materials My…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals My project was to determine if bean plants grew stronger and healthier by the addition of the right amount of sugar to their watering. I believe that plants that receive 50…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of my experiment was to see how the timing of the application of potassium affects plant growth. Methods/Materials There were four groups of twelve plants each…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals To find if the plant growth in poppies and bush pea plants is affected by the application of aluminum, zinc, or iron sulfate; and to find if plants grow and germinate faster…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The goal of this project was to analyze the effects that a parasitic fungus and a mutualistic fungus would have on tomato plants', as well as Bacopa plants', growth, develop…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals My project objective was to determine the tolerance of different salinity levels from diluted ocean water on rice seedlings growth. Methods/Materials Purified drinking water…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The purpose of this study was to determine if Gossypium barbadense c.v. pima S-6 exposed to low, medium, and high levels of ozone would affect the G. barbadenses' roots and…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The experiment was done by comparing Kentucky bluegrass, or Poa pratensis and measuring how it grew in pure humus, or potting soil and a mixture of pure humus and sand. Meth…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals Is plant food production affected by different wavelengths of light? My hypothesis is that the plant under the green filter, which only allows green wavelengths through, wil…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals This experiment had two objectives. 1. The first objective was to determine whether plants could survive in a simulated Martian-like environment. 2. The second was to find w…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The objective of my project was to determine which soaking solution would germinate bean seeds most effectively. As a higher percentage of seeds successfully germinate, crop…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals This study examined the question of which type of soil pea plants grew better in- sterile, sterile with nitrogen fertilizers, or untreated soil. Methods/Materials A total of…
CSEF · 2005
Plant Biology
Objectives/Goals The purpose of this project is to find out which factor is most important for plant growth: sunlight, water, or good quality soil. We made a hypothesis that water is the mos…
