Plant seed Organic vs Inorganic

Throughout our science unit, we have been focusing on an organic and inorganic material. As an experiment, we decided to compare the growth of a bean seed in organic material vs inorganic material. We developed hypotheses and predicted what type of material our bean seeds would grow best in. Over the past three weeks, we have observed our bean seeds once or twice a week to see how they are changing and growing. Below are my observations I noticed today.

Here is a picture of my bean seed growing inorganic material:

Here is a picture of my bean seed growing in inorganic material:

My observations about my bean plant that is growing in organic material are… that it grew much better and taller. it looks healthier and bigger.

My observations about my bean plant that is growing in the inorganic material are… it looks dead it, is short and unhealthy

Conclusion: I think the plants grew better in the Orangic material because of these reasons: it is taller, bigger and healthier.

  1. I love how you described the inorganic material as “looking dead”. Next time, add explanations to the observations you are making. For example, what is in the inorganic soil that is making the plant look dead?
