I started keeping track of everything I'm doing with my pepper plants starting last Friday when I first planted them. I made this chart so I can keep record of what I'm doing just so I can look back and see what went wrong or right. Pepper Plant A and Pepper Plant B are both looking good. As shown in my observations column, no growth has been seen so far. I will be updating this chart in later blogs, to update you on the plants. In about two weeks I will begin to add compost. I will keep track of all that data as well in my chart! Today I planted my test plants for my compost experiment. Just a quick review of what I'm doing: I have been working on my compost bin for some time now and now that I have contributed quite a lot of compost items, I am almost ready to start my experiment. I will put a certain amount of compost dirt in one of these Pepper plants and the other I am using to compare.
Hypothesis: I think since compost is full of nutrients and "good stuff" so it will be great for the pepper plant. The other will be healthy as well because it will be fed normally and have the same sunlight. I think the one with compost will not die but neither all of a sudden grow faster. The compost will just make the soil more healthy. I am going to do the same thing everyday. I am making a chart of when I am watering them, when and how much compost I will put in the one pepper plant and the growth of each plant. |
