Based on our results of the tests we did to our soil sample we have come to the conclusion that our soil lacks nitrogen and has a stable amount of the nutrients, phosphorus, and potassium. The ideal pH range for the growth of plants falls between 5.5 and 7.0. Many plants are able to adapt to pH levels outside this range. The pH level for our sample falls between 6.5 and 7, indicating that the levels are just right for the growth of plants. The only plants growing in our sample was grass but there were also worms within the soil meaning that if there are enough nutrients for other organisms to grow then there are enough nutrients for other plants to grow and stay healthy. The grass is growing relatively healthy but there are no other plants there because the only outside factors impacting the growth of the soil is the cutting of it. Other plants are not being planted for the purpose of not affecting the soil. There are no pesticides being used to affect the growth of the plants.
