We allowed the plants to sprout for two weeks prior to applying our first treatment of nitrogen fertilizer. The seeds are watered once daily and kept in a controlled environment (greenhouse). After two weeks we applied our first treatment of nitrogen fertilizer to 5 of the 10 pots. As we applied treatments to the plants we labeled the ones we applied nitrogen to.
