TITLE: The Effect of different amounts of banana fertilizer on a pechay plant.

PROBLEM: Which amount of fertilizer works best on a pechay plant?
HYPOTHESIS: If we put different amounts of fertilizer on each plant then it will
surely affect the pechay plant’s growth.

EXPERIMENT PROCEDURES:
1. Prepare the soil, pechay seeds, pot, banana peels, water, and seed box .
2. Label the pots( ex. Pot A).
3. Prepare the soil to be planted
4. Put pechay seeds in seed box.
5. Water everyday using spray bottle.
6. After growing into a seedling, transplant/transfer the seedling.
7. Add banana fertilizer with different amounts when it is 3-5 weeks old
8. Observe the growth, changes, differences, and similarities of each
pechay plant.
9. Record the observations
