Almost everyone has experienced "growing" plants at least once. Even in elementary school, you grow morning glories, mini-tomatoes, etc.Cultivation" and "cultivation research" both involve growing plants, but the difference is whether there is a purpose and hypothesis behind it.

The power of plants can be brought out more if the environment can be adjusted. Cultivation research is the process of verifying whether or not changes in cultivation conditions will bring about the desired changes, such as producing more fruit or sweeter fruits. Why not try your hand at cultivation research by carefully observing plants that do not speak, and listening to their voices?
