Experimental Journal-Botany Day 1 Procedure: Cut two 2-liter bottles in half. Place sand in the bottom of both to function as weight. Place about 1 cup of soil on top of the sand. Then, sprinkle lettuce seeds over the soil. Spread another layer of soil over the seeds. Dampen the soil and then place one indoors under artificial lighting and one outside in an area where the seeds will acquire sunlight. Day 3 The seeds do not show any growth yet. Both containers received water. Day 6 The seeds outdoors do not show any signs of growth. The indoor seeds have sprouted and are now about 5 cm. tall. Bother containers received water. Conclusion The indoor plants grew better than the outdoor plance because at night the temperature reached below freezing. The cold temperature during the day did not allow photosynthesis to occur at a sufficient rate.
