Plant A- Milk 6&8243 tall Plant 6 h tall Plant C -Sweet Tea 6 h tall CONCLUSION OF MY EXPERIMENT The only plant that did well was the one with plain water. My guesswork was wrong. The milk plant did the worst by far If I was to do this experiment again, I would never, and I mean never, pluck milk as one of the liquids.I would like to try some more different liquids, like tap water with prophesier grow (fertilizer) and made Cool-Aid, because it is basically water with sugar and food coloring. I would like to see if plant does well with Cool-Aid because it is almost all water and would like to contend if the food coloring would change the color of the plant/flowers. I would like to run this experiment in the summer time when it is hotter and they would get more sunlight. Wonder if the failed plants would stick died faster in hotter temperatures or if they would have fared better. My other thought on liquids was the try Coca-Cola as one of the liquids.
