| I
think rain water will make the plants grow best.

|
| Which
types of water help plants to grow the best. Two types of water were
chosen for this project. They were rain water and tap water.
Sunflower seeds were chosen also, because they are my favorite and they
are easy to grow.
The experiment
lasted for seven weeks. I began by planting 1 sunflower seed in four
starter pots with ěEasy Growing Soil.î The pots were put in the window
in my basement facing the south. I watered each plant with 1/4 cup
of water every other day. I label the sunflower pots with paper so
I knew which plants needed which water. I took measurements every
Sunday. I began taking pictures when it sprouted. On the fifth
week of my experiment I eliminated two of the three seeded pots that didnít
grow.

1. I put 1 sunflower seed in each of the 4 pots of soil. 2. I labeled the sunflower pots with paper so I knew which plants needed which water. 3. I watered each plant with 1/4 cup of water every other day. 4. I checked the plant every day. 5. I took measurements every Sunday. I began taking pictures every week when it sprouted. |

After
2 weeks the rain water sunflower plant started to grow. The other
seeds didnít grow.
   |
|
| I
learned that it is better to use rain water instead of tap water when you
are growing sunflower seeds.
