Objectives/Goals

The objective was to find out if size and mass affect the growth of a bean's plant.

Methods/Materials

Various sized lima beans were placed into different categories defined by size and mass. These lima beans were placed in different vases and watered daily. Observations were recorded in a journal.

Lima beans, vases, sunshine, electric light, water, soil.

Results

The small sized bean did not grow at all. The medium sized beans' plants came in first place and the large beans's plants came in second place.

Conclusions/Discussion

If a lima bean is too small then no plant will grow from it. A lima bean must be a certain size for a plant to come from that bean. 3rd party contributor
