The fertilizers are the ones that can change and affect other things, which would be the growth. We are directly seeing how different types of fertilizer affect the growth of the plants, so the growth of the plant is the dependent variable. Some possible constants that can come from this experiment are the weather- they can grow these different tomato plants in their own fertilizers in the same weather (degrees, sunny or cloudy, how humid it is, etc.). An obvious constant is the plant itself! The only plants being tested are tomato plants, so they are a constant within this experiment.]]> 2021-07-06 23:49:31 UTC https://padlet.com/liz_lesher/9iywze2dfgnl/wish/1639366517 Kathryn B. https://padlet.com/liz_lesher/9iywze2dfgnl/wish/1639744067 If I was growing five tomato plants, I would use the 5 same tomato plants in 5 different pots.
