  • Abstract: This hydroponics project by Sydney and Faye investigates how nutrient levels affect plant growth compared to ordinary water. Using seedlings, bottles, water, and fertilizer, they labeled and observed plants grown hydroponically. The goal was to determine if added nutrients enhance growth. Their conclusion confirmed that plants with nutrients grew healthier than those with just water. The experiment highlights the benefits of hydroponics, such as faster growth and better health, by optimizing nutrient delivery. The simple setup—seedlings in labeled bottles with water or fertilizer—demonstrates an accessible way to explore soilless farming. The results support hydroponics as an effective method for cultivating robust plants.
