Problem 12E

Blocking tomatoes To obtain enough plants for the tomato experiment of Exercise 4, experimenters have to purchase plants from two different garden centers. They then randomly assign the plants from each garden center to all three fertilizer treatments. Is the experiment blocked? Is that a good idea?

Exercise 4:

Tomatoes You want to compare the tastiness and juiciness of tomatoes grown with three amounts of a new fertilizer: none, half the recommended amount, and the full recommended amount. You allocate 6 tomato plants to receive each amount of fertilizer, assigning them at random. What are the experimental units? What is the response variable?
