Hi wlgeertsen,

Try to only create one thread for one question. Besides that, I don't think it has been widely tested. Some plants (like hydrangea) react differently to different chemicals than other plants. If you want to start a science project on that, we would be glad to help you get started if you have questions.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the help.

I do have one question. How do I test the nutritional value of a plant? I will be performing these chemical tests on green beans and I want to know how they effect the chemicals have on growth, edibility, and nutrition.
