I sampled 50 replicates.
The sampling process went well, though I have learned that spider webs seem to be a common theme and that is something I must come to terms with. Also, bees are nice and wasps are not.
I had to forgo my plan of taking pictures of each of my samples since it was taking too long, it didn’t provide the resolution needed, and many of the samples required moving around branches to see the flowers hidden around them which wasn’t manageable with the camera.
I noticed with the initial data that there does seem to be a correlation with the number of flowers and the amount of direct sunlight which matches my hypothesis; however, my prediction of the number of hours of direct sunlight that produces the maximum number of flowers appears to be incorrect and the plants need full sun (6+ hrs) rather than light shade (3<>6 hrs).
