Project Information
Many students think of the scientific method as a step-by-step process that all scientists follow in order. But real research is rarely so neat and tidy…it is really more of a research cycle or spiral because things you learn in one step can change your ideas about what you’ve already done or about next steps.
It is OK to change your thinking! We encourage you to go back and edit things you write in this section at any time as your ideas change. Just remember to explain your changes in your updates feed.

About this Project | Despite finding issues with their seeds germinating this team kept on trying and communicating with their mentor.They addressed issues of watering and found in the end that [the treatment that] did not have fertilizer grew. They began to suspect that the fertilizer had something to do with their lack of growth, asking their mentor, 'Is it possible that adding too much fertilizer may affect or actually cause damage to the seeds?' They provided evidence to their mentor and at the end she believed the fertilizer was indeed toxic. |
