On Plants and Shampoo


Question
Hi I am the 7th grade student again...I was wondering what if I only do 2 pot one w/ water the other w/ shampoo how much shampoo would i do then? And If i put 4 bean seeds in each how deep should the pots be?Thanx!

Answer
Here is a web site of a group of kids in CA who did this experiment http://www.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas-web/kids/kdesb/2001benson.html
On the left hand side of this web site at the bottom of the list is a "contact" link. I sugest emailing them and asking what mixture they used. I would think since most shampoos are concentrated about 1 teaspoon per quart of water would give an efect. The beans should be planted about a 1/4 inch deep.
