Plant Growth/Agriculture

At the beginning of the break, I cared for my plant and watered it daily, but I made a big mistake. The pot was placed in the house, in the kitchen away from the windows, so there was no sunlight that reached the plant. I found this project very difficult to maintain because there are many factors that need to be considered. Temperature, water, soil, etc., there are many factors that i didn't think about when trying to grow this plant. However, I do know that it doesn't take a genius to grow a plant, but there were a lot of different casualties that caused the plant to not grow as much as it could. Some things i should've done to change the results of the plant was bringing in the plant inside when nighttime came, because maybe the cold air caused the plant to freeze and just stay in the same place and not grow. However, as soon as the sunlight came up, the plant grew normally, I just feel that if I kept it inside at night, the results would be greater. Overall, I feel that plant growth is more than just giving a seed some water, the surroundings around the plant, care, feeding, and all substances play a role in the growth of plants and I am satisfied with the results of the plant.
