Sampling a population of the plant Canadian Goldenrod (Solidago Canadensis) to observe properties including distance the plant was found, height, number of leaves and flowers, and crowdidness

Laid a 20m transect in a straight line within the grassland at Osgoode Woodlot located in the York University Campus (43.77, -79.50) to measure the point on the transect each time a Canadian goldenrod (Solidago Canadensis) plant was found intersecting with the transect. Each Canadian goldenrod plant was observed and details including height, number of flowers, number or leaves, and approximation of how crowded it was amongst other plants were recorded. The experiment was conducted outdoors on September 23, 2014 at 4:26p.m with a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius and partly sunny conditions. There was a sample size of 25 plants.
