Plant Status Update #4

Some abiotic factors that our plants depends on are the temperature and soil quality. The temperature affects our plants because if it is too cold then our plant would struggle to grow. The soil quality also affects our plants because if the soil is not fertile, then our plants would not grow. My plants are competing against the other plants around it for sunlight and water. I know they are competing because they all get the same amount of water and sunlight but some plants take the resources away from each other which causes competition. Sometimes winners and losers are not apparent because the plants seem to be growing normally. Our plants are involved in commonalism because insects feed off of them. This might harm the plant a bit and seem like parasitism but they might also benefit from the insects being there. Secondary succession is shown in the garden because the left over plants in the soil gives a way for life to begin.
