Method:
  1. Collect all material.
  2. Place 7 pots in an area where there is plenty of sunlight.
  3. Fill each pot with 25grams of potting mix.
  4. Plant 3 snow pea seeds in each pot.
  5. Water each plant with 20ml of water using the water can.
  6. Cover the top of each pot with a different coloured cellophane sheet, using Blu-tack to hold down the edges.
  7. Repeat steps 3-6 with remaining 7 pots. 
  8. Place these 7pots away from the first lot of pots but in an area with the same amount of sunlight. This will be the 2nd trial.
