Abstract
We hypothesis that if a plant receives supplemental Auxin (a plant hormone involved in regulating plant growth) treatment, it will need more light to grow. We used Wisconsin Fast Plants and planted 10 in four pots. They were placed under different light intensities, and received supplemental auxin treatment. A variety of factors was measured to determine growth. Light intensity seemed to be more important than auxin treatment.
