Light or dark

Tana Reichle

This project I discovered if plants grew better in the light or dark

My hypothesis was that the plants in the sun would grow better rather in the dark because in the sun they get vitamins but in the dark they don't get anything.

For my project I used 5 steps

I bought 10 plants

I put 5 in the sun and 5 in the dark

I measured the plants over time

And i recorded its health,height,and looks

The question I asked was what plant would grow better,In the sun or in the dark?

Abstract

Light or Dark

For my project I chose to do light or dark.what I did was I Took a total of 10 plans.five of them were placed in direct sunlight,and the other five were placed in a shady closet.I chose this project because it stood out from the others.

After about a week all the plans were either dry or dead. Every day the plans received a good amount of water and fertilizer. some of them even sprouted another plant.Two out of the 10 were just a baby Sprouses. my hypothesis about the plants grow better in the dark or light;Is . that is the one in the light will grow faster.But and there is a possibility of the plants in the light getting to dry and starting to struggle and shrivel up.Every two days I took photos of each plant.I observed and wrote down how the plants were doing, their height and . how many cups of water they were given., most of the plans for 4 inches tall.besides the Sprouses they were only a short 2 inches in height.

As the final result of the test what plant will grow more it turns out that the 5 in the sun grew more than the ones in the dark! After testing the plants for 2 whole weeks the plants managed to succeed.sadly some of the plants in the dark died off.The subjects in the sun grew a total inches.The dark plants shriveled up,detached from their soil and died.

At the end of Light V.S dark the ones in light grew more.I learned that even the most less amountage of sun can stunt and kill plants.As a result I was correct about the subjects in the sun would grow more.

Conclusion:At the end I was correct about the plants growing better in the sun.
