From the Paper:

"Questions such as the effect of commercial growth enhancers and chemical use in an agricultural setting are on a scale much grander than is practical in this laboratory, and impractical for non-botanical majors such as ourselves. Our concern, therefore, is merely the survival of "domestic science" and the smaller ecosystems in our own living rooms. Rather, we wondered if the plant product Miracle-Gro(r) did what it is advertised to do: increase the growth rate and health of domestic plants."
