Today I spent the day finalizing my SRP report. After recording all my results, I logged them into excel and created my graph. I used a line graph as this was the most useful way to present my data. Here is my results graph.
Through my graph, it is evident that my hypothesis has been fulfilled. The plants in the acidic soil truly did grow the fastest.
As I was reflecting over my SRP, there was no doubt that this experiment presented me with multiple problems. I was faced with the problem of the weather almost every day. These past two weeks happened to be the weeks that Sydney saw the most rainfall and storms in months. Though this did not affect the plants, I was unable to measure my plants at exactly 4:45 pm due to the heavy rainfall. I have learnt that to overcome this by conducting the SRP indoors. I was also faced with a lot of technical issues. My videos constantly decided not to work, my phone kept stopping in the middle of a recording and I forgot to take a picture of the materials before conducting my experiment.
Nevertheless, this SRP has been an enjoyable and informative experience that I would certainly repeat. A special thanks to my father and cousin who tirelessly helped me in conducting my SRP. And of course to my sister who recorded my videos for me.
