Tomato+Growth+in+Worm+Compost+(4th+Quarter+2010+-+2011)

=Tittle(Kathryn 5/31/11): Tomatoe Growth= =﻿Backround(Kathryn 5/31/11):= Purpose - We did this lab to find out how much worm compost is needed to grow a tomatoe plant. Amount of Compost - You should use 50% of worm compost. I found this information at " How Much Wormcompost? " Amount of Water - You should supply water for the plant once every 2-3 days. I found this information at " Tips for Watering Tomatoe Plants ". Amount of Light - Your plant should get 6-8 hours of light every day. I found this information at " Growing Better Vegies " Amount of Germination - Your plant should get

=Hypothesis(Danyi 5/27/11):= 50% worm composting is the best one for tomatoes' growth, then is 25% of worm composting, 15% of worm composting, and 0% of worm composting is not helpful for the tomatoes' growth. We are trying to find out what amount of worm composite would work best for a tomato plants growth. We are using 0%, 15%, 25%, and 50% of worm composite for the plants. It is probably best to use 50% worm composite because the plant is most likely to get a variety of nutrients.

=**Variables (Bailey 5-29-2011):**= Independent Variable- The independent variable is the amount of compost. Dependent Variable- The dependent variable is the height and the number of leaves. Control- The controlled variable is the amount of sunlight, water and the same amount of time the tomatoes get to grow.

=﻿Procedures(Brendan 5/28/11):=
 * Get some tomatoe seeds
 * get some potting soil and worm compost
 * have people assigned mix the potting soil and worm compost in o% compost, 15% compost, 25% compost, and 50% compost
 * have people mix the amount of potting soil and worm compost according to 0, 15 ect.
 * calculate the growth as each day goes by and see which amount of worm compost works the best.
