Well done Oliver. I liked how you put a lot of thought into the development of your scientific investigation, especially the consideration you gave to the notion of fair testing and variables. Your final experiment was interesting to read and I enjoyed the updates. In future experiments you do need to include clear links between the information that you have discovered and the impact that you expect to have through the changes. You mention that your presentation is an area that you need ot improve on. I think you need to give yourself credit for what you have achieved and how far you have come.
