  1. Revised:

    Please provide results from both pH paper and pH meter as comparison.

    Please show the calculation, pictures of the soil layers and line drawn on the textural triangulation to determine the soil texture.
    Assigned this task to Nurul Azilah.

    Dug out 5 seedlings from each pot today Friday (12/5/2017).
    Measure the weight of the whole plant.
    Measure the length of the whole plant from root to shoot, root parts only and shoot parts only.

    Note if there any deficiency on the seedlings.

    It will be easier to follow the result progress in a table form.
