This science fair project tested how different flavors of vitamin water affect the growth of mung bean plants. Three plants were each given a different type of vitamin water, including a Zero Sugar option, over ten days. The goal was to see which one would grow the fastest and healthiest. The results showed that the plant given Zero Sugar vitamin water grew the best, suggesting that sugar may negatively affect plant growth.

You made it SARSEF! Congratulations and good luck!
you did a great job analyzing some variables that you didn’t consider when setting up the experiment and your conclusions. Good job!
1. You kept a consistent routine (watering daily at the same time) and recorded daily observations with photos, which strengthens your investigation.
2. Your conclusion connects to what you observed (Zero Sugar grew best and you noticed mold in the sugary treatments), and you honestly reported mistakes and limitations.
