Cut different fabrics of equal sizes. (3×3 inches is used for thisproject) 5. Put stains on these cloths. Stains should be of equal amounts. 6. Soak these fabrics into different solutions that we have made. Set it aside and record all the changes that will happen. 7. Use two different plants to know the effect of Oyster shell solution and detergent on them. Water both plant with these solutions. Make sure that they are both under good condition.
