SciFest Presentation :)

On Friday the 01/03/2013 all Transition Years and three Second Year groups, presented our SciFest projects. I did my project with Lisa and our project was 'The growth of grass in different soil samples'. We got soil samples from six different counties: Donegal, Cork, Tipperary, Wicklow, Mayo and Cavan. We grew grass in each of these soil samples and found that Donegal soil was the best for the growth of grass. From further research we found that Donegal was the best for growing grass due to the fact that the Donegal soil was the only soil that was naturally fertile. We found that if we had of used fertiliser in the other soil samples that the grass would have grown better. Unfourtunately our project did not get through to the competition but we had great fun doing our project :)
