What plant should i choose for science fair?

I am doing my science fair project on plant growth with different colors of sun light. I am putting transparency film over the leaves and seeing which grows best.

I don't know what plant to choose though. It needs to be leafy and healthy and i need to be able to not kill because i kill everything i grow without even trying

Beans and tomatoes are your best options as they grow quickly.





Red and blue light have the greatest effect on plant growth. Green light is least effective to plants as they reflect green light and absorb none. Blue light is primarily responsible for vegetative growth or leaf growth. Red light, when combined with blue light, encourages flowering in plants. The other colours play a smaller role in the plants life cycle.





You can also pick a flowering plant and show the difference between a blue and red light source in slowing the flowering phase. You can pick up common seed at your local hardware store.





Good Luck.
