Hey. I'm in AP Bio and I have to write up an experiment on plants. I am not an expert on plants at all. Does anybody know of an expirement that I could start and finish within 2-4 weeks?

Buy some white flowers, put half in some regular water and half in some water that has some food coloring added. Observe for however long they live for, and maybe repeat again using different brand food colorings. Then discuss which one lived longer and why, things like that.

You can watch them grow, maybe water one and not the other so you can compare and contrast. Or even observe someone else garden of vegetables, determine why some are smaller than others. Or even grab a variety of different types, observe, and determine their differences or alikes. [ Advicelady6798's advice column | Ask Advicelady6798 A Question ]
