What is the best soil for plant growth?

We have set up an experiment to find out what is the best soil for plant growth.  Is it top soil, peat, compost with zinc or compost with potassium?  We made sure that we had only one variable – the soil and everything else was exactly the same (amount of water, amount soil, pot and seeds).

We have predicted what soil we think will produce the best plant growth and we are really looking forward to observing the growth of the sunflower seeds.

    1. We’d love to have the nursery boys and girls come and visit. They could help us water and measure our tomato plants.
