Chemical Fertilizer vs Organic Fertilizer A chemical fertilizer is defined as any inorganic material of wholly or partially synthetic origin that is added to the soil to sustain plant growth. Organic fertilizers are substances that are derived from the remains or by products of organisms which contain the essential nutrients for plant growth. Comparison chart | Chemical Fertilizer | Organic Fertilizer | NPK Ratio: | 20 to 60% | About 14% | Example: | Ammonium sulfate‚ ammonium phosphate‚ ammonium

FIXING PEA PLANTS (Pisum sativum) ON GROWTH OF CORN (Zea mays) Introduction Interactions among plant species‚ particularly negative ones‚ have been a concern in agriculture (Levene 1926‚ Russell 1961). Novoa (1981) suggested that it would be advantageous to rotate certain crops by season‚ grow certain crops together‚ or avoid growing certain crops on the same land. Observations indicated that some crops require specific types of nutrients in contrast to other crop species‚ and plants within

growth and development of Wisconsin Fast Plants Introduction It is common knowledge that plants need light to grow and develop. This is done by the conversion of light energy into usable sugars during photosynthesis. Light absorbing molecules‚ known as pigments‚ absorb only specific wavelengths of visible light‚ mostly blue and red wavelengths (1). Whatever wavelength isn’t absorbed is reflected and the reflection is the color of plant we see. Plants also respond to wavelengths of light in non-photosynthetic

Introduction: The rice plant has tillers which are a characteristic of grass plants; however they have recognized a way of growing the plant which causes it to create the best grain possible. Discussion: Vegetative: In this stage the plant germinates and gradually grows taller and leaves emerge at steady intervals. Germination: The root elongates through the seed coat and anchors into the soil. The primary leaf (coleoptile) also elongates and breaks through the seed coat. Early seedling

compounds such as benzoic‚ cinnamic and phenolic acids which inhibit growth of crops and weeds growing near it. Phenolic acids and volatile oils released from the leaves‚ bark‚ and roots of certain Eucalyptus spp. have deleterious effects on other plant species. In the study of Bughio et al.‚ using the eucalyptus camaldunlensis as allelopathy agent against Acasia nilotica‚ The Eucalyptus leaf litter and leaf litter extract also caused significant reduction in seedling vigour index of Acacia nilotica

properties that affect the growth rate of plants in different ways. These properties may be the wavelength of the music‚ its frequency or even its tempo. According to a study conducted by Margaret E. Collins and John E. K. Foreman‚ entitled The Effect of Sound on the growth rate of plants (2001)‚ plants growth is directly affected by sounds of varying frequencies. They observed that when plants are exposed to pure tones‚ it affects the growth of the plant. This was due to the transverse wave which

Does too much water help plants grow more rapidly? Hypothesis I think a plant given an unlimited supply of moisture will grow more rapidly than a plant given the recommended amount of water. To prove my hypothesis I will use the following materials: • Bean and mielie seeds • Cotton wool • Tap water My preparation includes: • Putting one cotton wool ring on six separate saucers • Placing one bean and one mielie seed on each ring • Covering the seeds with another ring • Label

Research Project: The Effect of Calcium on Plant Growth Problem Statement What affect do various amounts (0 mg‚ 300 mg‚ 600 mg) of Calcium added to Vigna unguiculata (black eyed pea plants) once a week have on the overall growth (height‚ number of leaves‚ number of pods) over a 30 day period of time? Research Hypothesis If various amounts (0 mg‚ 300 mg‚ 600 mg) of Calcium are added to Vigna unguiculata (black eyed pea plants) once a week‚ then those plants receiving 300 mg of Calcium will have a
