pea plants grow faster in a mixture of 25% potting soil and 75% compost, in 50% potting soil and 50% compost, or in 75% potting soil and 25% compost? Hypothesis: If Snow Green pea plants are grown, starting from seeds in three different ratios of soil to compost (25% potting soil and 75% compost, in 50% potting soil and 50% compost, and in 75% potting soil and 25% compost) then the peas that were in the 75% potting soil and 25% compost soil will grow the fastest. Introduction: The question…

Research summary: Most of Earth's fresh water is actually underground! How soils hold water as well as allow it to move underground is what our purpose is for our IScience Project! Surface water movement causes rocks and landscapes to erode because as the water moves it picks up particles and sediments and transport them to various locations around the target. The same thing happens underground as groundwater moves through the soil and rocks there which is called Permeability and Porosity!…

and time consuming. Therefore, simple method of application is suggested as under. Remove the mulch under the plant canopy leaving one foot circle around the main stem. Slightly disturbing the soil in the de-mulched area with forks. Broadcasting fertilizer uniformly and evenly in this area and reworking the soil. Cover again with the removed mulch. This method is very efficient and it avoids volatilization and washing away of nutrients. In steep areas, fertilizers will be applied in semi arch…
