Plants compete mainly for:

  • Sunlight (higher and wider plants get more sunlight and grow faster)
  • Space (places to root)
  • Nutrients (drawn from the soil)

The next two things are a bit dependent on the kind of plant species:

  • Survival from plant-eaters (least poisonous or tough-leaved ones get eaten)
  • Attention from insects (in species that, for example, use flowers to attract insects for pollination)

In terms of chemical competition, the elements that plants need which they compete for are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulphur.
