I have 4 days to write a research report for my science fair project. It's about fermentation and I have a good amount of data: unfortunately I have no idea how much to write. This would be for an Intel-qualifying fair, i.e. money, so are there any researchers here who would like to give me some tips?

Tip #1: Don't wait until four days before a large project is due to start working on it.

Nonono, I mean, it's mostly done, but I have no idea what else i should say

i have
introduction
purpose and hypothesis
procedures
diagrams
many graphs and charts
explanation of those
a discussion of my results
and some future results

i need another 800 or so words.

Yeah, I wouldn't wait until 4 days before. Wait until 1 day before to really get the adrenaline going and pump out some quality work.

Does your introduction include a theory section? (explaining what fermentation is)
Do you really want chat rooms?

Why is there a word count in a science fair project? O.o

You could add a section "apparatus" stating the materials you used. Also in the discussion of your results, talk about what went wrong. What were some setbacks in your project? What factors affected your results and how? What could you do to improve how the experiment went (what would you add to the apparatus; what would you change in the procedure) and why?

I'm judging in a science fair in a little over a week.... and most of the criteria I am to rate the science projects on are pretty dumb... in line with having a strict word count... I won't go into details but yes it pisses me off too.

Can you be more specific? like what kind of fermentation are you refering to? Also what exactly do you have on your details in introduction, purpose and hypothesis, produres, etc? and the most important question why should I care?

Good point. You should indicate what your objective was, and what you did about it.

I describes my BSc pretty well, and no I'm not proud of that fact, but Machiavelli wouldn't mind now would he?

Introduction:
Translation: bsbsbsbsbsbsbsbsbsbs
Basically, I learned that a certain method of cultiuring bacteria was able to increas production rather quickly, and designed an alternative hypothesis using a slightly different bacteria.

Purpose, hypothesis, etc.: same nonesense

Procedure: some fancy culturing and gas chromatography

Results: followed in line with procedure et. al many nice charts graphs and integrals

discussion-this should be the longest part but I don't know what else to stuff in there

Why are you using GC? Are you using it for GC/MS, or did you just want to run you bugs through a column for shits and giggles?
The number you have dialed is out of porkchops.

im using gc because concentrations are too low to pick up on FTIR, and i'm integrating the peak areas for comparison

i already verified the identity of the peaks by using 100% pure ethanol/butanol to correspond the evaporation curves, and they seem to fit nearly exactly.
