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.
