RESULTS
2/ Effect of pH on onion growth
The data was normal distributed with unequal variances Kruskal-Wallis test was applied
to study about differences in pH.
H0 : pH has no effect on growth of onions
Ha : pH has effect on growth of onions
- F < F crit and moreover, the p value was 1,84E-12 which is smaller than 0.05 (p critical).
- Therefore, the null hypothesis was not accepted. The conclusion is that therefore, pH
change affects the growth of onions

3/ Effect of light time exposure on onion growth
The data was normal distributed with unequal variances Kruskal-Wallis test was applied
to study about differences in light time exposure.
H0 : light time exposure has no effect on growth of onions
Ha : light time exposure has effect on onion's growth
- F < F crit and moreover, the p value was 1,84E-12 which is smaller than 0.05 (p critical).
- Therefore, the null hypothesis was not accepted. The conclusion is that therefore, light
time exposure change affects the growth of onions
