=**III. Procedure:** I Plant three Marigold plants in one cup of Mericle Grow potting soil and bio-degradable seed starter, giving them 25ml of water.= =II Play music preformed by Genisis to one plant, and "To Kill A Mockingbird" audio book to another for one hour.= =III Record grouth results and repeat step II-III the next day for as long as required.=
