Title: The pH of plant water James Bryan 3rd hour

Purpose: I plan to see if watered downed soda pH will be better for growing plants then regular bottled water pH. I plan to do this by having the control being the bottled water and the independent variable being the watered down soda. I would __test__ this by having the plants in the same soil same plant same conditions but with different liquids for watering over a couples day time to see which would grow bigger. I found mountain dew pH is 3.22 i believe buy adding water to it it I can make it have the same pH as rainwater in turn creating more liquid to water plants with. (21St Century Ental.

(Recipe Rescue: What To Do When Foods Are Too Acidic?" // The Kitchn // . The Kicthin, n.d. Web. 29 Nov. 2012. ) Also I found out that drinking water dilutes the acid hence making it not as acidic as it was. (Allyay Dy Beach. "Does Drinkng Water Make __#|Stomach Acid__ Less Acidic? If So How?" // Yahoo! Answers // . Yahoo!, n.d. Web. 29 Nov. 2012. ). I have learned that water can be akaline which means it can lower acid. (Black, Ken, and Bronwyn Harris. "Akaline Water." // WiseGeek // . Conjecture, 12 Oct. 2012. Web. 14 Dec. 2012.) I found out that water is balanced so when adding it to something it makes it less acidic.  (Chmapbell, Meg. "How Can Adding Lemon Juice to Water Make the Water Alkaline?" // LIVESTRONG.COM // . N.p., n.d. Web. 14 Dec. 2012.) Another thing I found is that water is aklizing so it means it will lower acidity.

N.p., n.d. Web. 14 Dec. 2012 Materials: 2 of the same plant seed, a bottle of mountain dew gamer fuel (or whatever flavor i can find), soil, and water

Hypothesis watered down soda will be better for growing plants than rainwater.

Procedure will water plants in same soil same light for a period of a couple weeks to see how much they grow with the different liquids.

The graph ====Analysis I have figured that the mountain dew water was a terrible idea because all of the plants died while the water ones survived. As my tables has confirmed the mountain dew plants did not grow at all. The mountains dews chemicals most likely were the reason the plants didn't grow. The plants that had plain water flourished as the graphs showed. Water is the only guaranteed way to make a plant grow with the other stuff. The most likely reason the Mountain Dew didn't work is because I didn't measure out enough water to mix with the dew. The plants slowly grew to numbers like 1.5 in because of the limited time we had to grow the plants. Another thing I didn't plant enough seeds in some pots I think. I also didn't put the mountain dew's other chemical in consideration.====

Conclusion watered down Md. is better than reg water for plants. I reject that hypothesis becasue all of my plants died that had the Md.
====Limitations New hypothesis water is better for plants than watered down mountain dew. Errors amount of water used didn't measure anything and didn't measure the mountain dew mix. Solutions measure stuff use exat amount of water and measure the mix next time.====
