I did an experiment during biology class where we put one parsnip seed in a cup filled with compost and another cup filled with compost, but this time with 8 seeds. After watering the plants, I found that the cup with 8 seeds grew taller. My prediction was that the cup with one seed would grow taller because it has less competition with other seeds to collect water and nutrients, or was it just luck?

I know that they’re quite vertical, but I kept my last betta in a 3 gallon Aquaview 360, which was just like, a plain big cylinder, and he was very happy in his tank until one day he had gotten himself stuck in one of his aquarium caves and I came home to him dead ): All my friends on a betta forum said his tank was really good, and it was more skinny and tall than the hex… Anyways, should I buy a hex, or a 10 gallon tank? I don’t really have much room for a ten gallon, and the only free piece of furniture I have for that tank is old and might not be able to support all that weight… A 10 gallon seems overwhelming…. but I want to get one ghost shrimp and grow some live plants, is that still possible in the hex?

I just leaned over my neighbors fence in the back yard and pulled some of the plants that were growing naturally from the earth,I don’t know the name of the plants,but they are tall the stem is hard a little and they are green,I got carried away and went out and pulled MORE out and banged them against the side of the garage to get the dirt off the roots.

Sorry for posting another quesiton about molly fry, but I need to make a few clarifications and add another question

I don’t have a second aquarium at this time. I’m saving to buy a 75 gallon… but right now the only other tank I have is a 15 gallon that holds my Betta, whose not very mellow so he’d kill the momma before she’d give birth.

I was thinking of using something like this: http://www.aquarist-classifieds.co.uk/forum/upload/breeder-trap.jpg

but someone told me that’s not a good idea.

I have four plants in the tank right now… three are silk and one is real tall grass…

should I get the net or add more plants and just let them go as is? and if I let them go as is, how do I feed them. Someone told me to feed molly fry newly hatched brine shrimp… can they also eat small crumbled particles of the flake food?

I just want to make sure some of the babies survive. I’ve never had baby fish before, and I’d love to watch them grow up so I want to do whatever I can to protect them.

The mango tree is about 5 years old, grown from a cutting. We call the variety "Indian mango" here in the Philippines. It is now 10 feet tall with two major branches. I don’t want it to grow taller than 15 feet or the branches to spread beyond a 15-feet circumference. How will I prune it to control its height or the density of its foliage? I want sunlight to reach my other plants, too.

Would plants grow taller on the moon? Yes, I know there is no air on the moon. It would be in a greenhouse or something. Would they grow a little taller, six times as tall, or about the same?

I dont know, i was reading a CRCT thing in science, and got to thinking about it after it said something about it. It never did say anything more, so i just think ill ask here: Do plants grow taller in green light or white light?

Im doing a science assignment (year and need to know can i do the experiment if plants grow taller in the dark without a light meter and still get it correct?
