Lima beans in soil of pH 6.8 grew better than that in soil of pH 7.9 showing that a slightly acidic soil is best for growth of Lima beans.
<h3>What is the purpose of the experiment?</h3>
The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effect of soil pH of growth of Lima beans.
Lima beans is known to have maximum growth in soil pH of 6.0 to 6.8.
The Lima beans are planted in soil of pH 7.9 (watered with creek water) and soil of pH 6.8 (watered with a solution of Miracle grow).
It was observed after ten days, that the Lima beans in soil of pH 6.8 grew better than that in soil of pH 7.9 which did not grow.
In conclusion, Lima beans grows best in soil of pH that is slightly acidic.
