Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to understand the effects of soaking yellow bean seeds in Miracle Grow and All Purpose Plant Food. Each of these fertilizers were used at a high and low concentration. The seeds in fertilizers germinated at the same rate as the control. This experiment demonstrated that using fertilizers to speed up germination is of no value.
