Collected Data: The okra plants with fertilizer y grew 10% faster than those with fertilizer x. (making this up)

hypothesis: Because of the chemical content in fertilizer x, I believe fertilizer x will be best for the okra plants.

For the experiment, put how he would see which one is more effective. (not sure how your teacher may have wanted it)

Answer 2

Your steps seem to be out of order.  It should be:

1. Problem: Which fertilizer, x or y, will be good for okra plant growth?

2.  Hypothesis: Fertilizers will increase plant growth and health.

3.  Experiment: Set up 3 pots with 1 okra plant.  Pot 1 will be the control receiving only water.  Pot 2 will receive water and fertilizer X.  Pot 3 will receive water and fertilizer Y.

4. Data collection:  Measure each plant once a week and take note of the appearance (i.e. plant has yellow spots on leaves, or leaf tips are dead and brown).

5. Analyze results (if needed?):  Determine which plant grew the tallest and looks the healthiest.  Do you accept or reject your initial hypothesis?  Which fertilizer produce the best results?
