Pinto beans or in other words common beans are the most abundant beans in both Americans, making it major source of daily nutrients for large number of civilians.
This experiment was done to examine if the number of seeds used in a specific area would affect the growth process using two pots (Control, Experiment). Control pot had two Pinto beans, while the Experiment pot had four seeds. Both pots were placed in the same room with same amount of water supply and light. Then the results showed that the seeds in control pot were able to grow into a plant, unlike the experiment pot, this could be due to the insufficient space to grow in the experiment pot. Neglecting to water the pots during the spring break period could be an additional reason for the failure of growth.
Introduction:
Phaseolus vulgaris or as it called Pinto bean, is a common plant originated from America, where its dominated mostly in the south and the Middle of America. And also could be found in some areas in Asia and Africa. Pinto bean, promotes a good supply for the cardiovascular health, in which it supplies the bodies with the required minerals. (1)
Pinto beans play an efficient role in the human nourishment, other than it’s a taste able plant, it also filled with many proteins and a good source of copper, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, and iron, which they all are important for every function in the body and to regulate the body cells. The seeds of the pinto beans plants are well known to be a wealthy nutrition for humans, not only it’s a source of proteins, but it also contains some vitamins, and energy in diets for both humans and animals. (2) Pinto bean plants, produce well in a warm weather, whereas the temperature vary from 80 F to 60 F throughout its growing season. Spring and the summer, considered as the best seasons for the pinto bean plant’s growth, the soils are usually moist, which keeps the root system development; the soil temperature is also moderate, and thus it provides the plants suitable, for best yield production. (3) My question is will the amount of seeds that’s planted in a specific area impact the growth of the pinto bean? Method: Both of the control and the experiment were prepared on February 2, 2016, then ended it up after six weeks on March 15, 2016, indoor of Saint Paul College’s biology lab. The consumed soils was in its best temperature, ranging from 65F to 70F, even though the outside temperature was under 40F, however the plants were kept under a Full-spectrum fluorescent bulbs, to supply the plants with an acquire temperature and also as alternate for sun light. The plants soil was arranged in 250 ml size pots. Different amounts of seeds were added to each pot, two pinto bean seeds were added to the control pot, whereas four equally sized seeds of pinto bean were added to the experiment pot. The pinto plant seeds were approximately 1-2 inch’s deep, under the soil. The plants received a continues amount of water, for the whole six weeks, except only the spring break week from March 7, 2016, to March 11, 2016. The intensity of light that both the plants received was sixteen continuous hours of warm light, then there were kept under cool light- dark light- for eight hours. The measurements of the plants were taken every other week, on Tuesdays; besides the spring break week, neither plants were taking care off, nor they were measured.

The number of seeds does effect the growth of the plant, depending on some factors which are the size of the pot, and the watering method for both of the control and the experiment. Those environmental factors had influenced the growth of the pinto bean experiment plant. The pot size that was used for the control plant was 250 ml, which turned out to be insufficient for the experiment plant with more number of seeds, causing an ingrowth of what was supposed to be an experiment plant. In additional to that, infrequent care in watering the plants could be one of the reasons to the failure of the growth, leading to several effects on both the control and the
