"Effects of Sewer Water from Homes on the Growth of Pechay". Adviser: Mr. Darren E. Dumaop The research study entitled "Effects of Sewer Water from Homes on the Growth of Pechay" was conducted to determine the effects of sewer water as an alternative water source in watering pechay and to determine the possibility of using sewer water in watering pechay: Sewer water are those water which are already used and being wasted. The researcher came up with the study because of that sewer water may contain organic matters that can help in growing pechay. This study used the Complete Randomized Design (CRD), the statistical treatment used was the T-test for Dependent Means. The pechay seeds were raised in the sowing tray for two weeks. Right after sowing, pechay seedlings were transplanted in each polyethylene bags with soil. The plants were placed in an open space for them to receive enough sunlight. Watering was done every morning. There was no fertilizer used so that it would not affect the result of plant growth. The control of pest was done by placing box with net instead of using pesticide. The observation and gathering of data was done on weekly intervals except for the weight of the plant. The weight was taken after harvesting. The data gathered were analyzed. Based on the statistical computation using T-test for dependent means, results show that in terms of plant weight and height, there is a significant difference between sewer water and tap water in watering plants at 0.05 level of significance. In terms of plant height, there is a significant difference because the computed t-value of 3.46875 is greater than the critical value of 3.182. In terms of weight of the plant, result shows that there is a significant difference because computed t-value of 5.0999 is greater than the critical value of 3.182. But in terms number of leaves, result shows that there is no significant difference between sewer water and tap water because the computed t- value of 0.4932 is less than the critical value of 3.182 at 0.05 level of significance. Tap water gave the highest manifestation of growth in terms of weight, height, and number of leaves of the plant. Based on the computed data by statistical computation, it was proven that there is a significant difference between sewer water and tap water in watering the plants in terms of weight and height. Sewer water gave smaller manifestation of growth as compared to tap water. It can also be concluded that tap water was still best for watering plants, but it is also possible to use sewer water in watering pechay.
