---------------------------------
Ho: The means are the same for the 4 Plants
H1: At least one of the means is different
-------------
I ran an ANOVA Test on the 4 columns of data and got the following:
Test statistic: F = 14.18..
p-value = 0.00144
Conclusion:
Since the p-value is less than 5%, reject Ho.
At least one of the means is different.
