Seed Update #5

This week, our plants have developed some new anatomical structures, such as seeds and the little white flowers. The seeds will settle in the soil will germinate and grow to become new bean plants that will fill the empty space in the garden box. Some facts that limit the number of bean plants and their growth are temperature, precipitation, soil, insects or pollinating creatures, herbivores, other plants, and the garden box itself, which shows the limitations of carrying capacity. The climate of the bean plants niche is very important, as both temperature range, sunlight, and rainfall all affect the plant's ability to solely survive. In terms of pollination and carrying capacity, the bean plants can only survive so long they are able to reproduce in their environment. However, carrying capacity can limit this and cause the population of plants to fluctuate. Given that there are many other plants inhabiting the surrounding area and the resources available, I believe that the carrying capacity of the bean plants in their garden box is a possibly about 150-250.
