The second strongest concentration‚ 3%‚ only produced one sprout. This means that it is likely that the concentrations were too strong for most of the seeds and killed the plant embryos inside the seed. This trend is upset by 2% being more successful than 1%. To see a definite trend or draw a clearer conclusion‚ however would require large scale testing to be performed‚ a kind of which was not possible to do with the testing
