Effect of cultivar on plant height
An experiment was conducted to compare the differences in growth among four different cultivars of a house plant. The greenhouse had three benches in different locations which form natural blocks. Two pots of each cultivar (replicates) were randomly assigned to each bench for a total of six pots per cultivar and eight pots per bench.
