Radish Research Paper
The Radish seeds were planted in a pot, which contained soil from the garden and cow manure. The Radish was placed in an area similar to the black bean plant and watered daily. According to Yates Expert (n.d., para. 3) radish plants like moist soil and by watering the plant in the evening this helped stop the soil from being dried out from the summer weather.
By day eight the radish plant had germinated with more than one seed breaking through the soil. However, regular observations showed that the plant was taking a turn for the worse and by day 23 it had been observed that many of the leaves looked eaten. To help the plant continue to grow successful, a bug spray was applied to the radish plant, which had a strong garlic smell. The bug spray

    Radish plants usually grow in about three days if optimal conditions are kept. Optimal conditions for radish plants includes a soil whose pH is from 6 to 7. The soil has to be fine and not crumbly in order for the roots to grow. Also, they need at least 6 hours of sunlight and their soil should always be kept moist (GardenAdvice, 2007). In this experiment, 5% concentrated vinegar and 5% concentrated ammonia will be used on the radish plants in order to see which chemical kills the plants faster. It is hypothesized that ammonia will kill the radish plants faster than vinegar or both vinegar and ammonia combined.…

    Seeds require moisture to germinate. By presoaking a seed, it strips of the protective layer of the seed and speeds up the rate of germination. But the longer someone presoaks a seed, the greater the chance it has to rot. When presoaking seeds, one should avoid planting them in dry ground due to the risk of the moisture being taken out of the seeds instead of sticking with it to germinate, leaving the seed back to its original state. purpose - There are many factors that affect germination, however this lab will determine how moisture, specifically presoaking seeds will affect germination.…

    This experiment is designed to test the allelopathy of two different treatments, Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus cinerea) and Lemon (Citrus limon). The two treatments will be tested on radish seeds (Raphanus sativus) to investigate the effect of the treatments on the germination of the radish seeds. Allelopathy is the beneficial or harmful effects that one plant has on another plant by the release of chemicals. Allelopathy studies the interactions among plants, fungi, algae and bacteria with the organisms living in a certain ecosystem, interactions that are mediated by the secondary metabolites produced and exuded into the environment (Francisco A Macías, José MG Molinillo, Rosa M Varela, Juan CG Galindo 2007). The plants use allelotoxins, which are an allelochemical produced by one plant that is toxic to another plant, to help them compete for space. Often these chemicals inhibit seed germination and root growth of young neighboring plants with less effect on mature plants (Shimabukuro and Haberman 2006).…
