Hi,

So this is my first blog and its the basis of my SAE project where I need around 200 hours or more? It's all about plant science research and me researching about trial and error experiments. 

Some ideas I have are: 

  •  Hydroponics (can a plant grow in water with no soil involved?)
  •  Different types of soil (sand vs. soil?)
  •  Different types of seeds (which will grow faster?)
  • What are the effects of acid rain on plant growth?
  • Do household detergents affect plant growth
  • Does cigarette smoke affect plant growth?
  • Does soil temperature affect root growth?
  • Does caffeine affect plant growth?
  • How are plants affected by the distance between them?
  • How does the pH of soil relate to the pH of the water around the soil? 
  • How close does a plant have to be to a pesticide for it to work?
  • What is the effect of a chemical on a plant?
But this is just a draft, more ideas will come.
