Figure. 3 Plant 2’s growth

Based on figure 1 the organic fertilizer has proved to be better at plant growth than its chemical counterpart with
data showing that the plant which has been given organic fertilizer lived longer than the plant which has been given a
chemical fertilizer and not only did the plant which has been given organic fertilizer live longer it has shown more
growth in 3 days (Figure 1). Based on figure 2 and 3 plant 1 has shown more growth and has outlived plant 2 (Figures 2
& 3). My inference is that the organic fertilizer has done a better job at plant growth than the chemical fertilizer did.
The results in line with the hypothesis seem to be correct because the hypothesis states that if the organic fertilizer
performs better than the chemical one then the organic fertilizer is better in plant growth. Some possible errors in this
experiment are the fact that plants 1&2 died for possible reasons of overwatering, being scorched by the sun, and some
insects that could have been the cause of the two plants dying, these errors have left no plants to be observed in the
following days which have affected the data presented here.
