Yes, but it takes a special "green house" container and watering system.

What would be the benefits of being able to grow plants in your space station on the moon or on mars?
For one thing they make oxygen. and you can eat them as well not to mention the psychological benefits that the sight of greenery may have on the people working in the alien environment of space.
Why cant plants grow on the moon?
The moon doesn't support wildlife because there is no oxygen and no water in space.
Can trees grow in space?
Trees cannot grow in empty space since there are not resources needed for growth, such as soil and water.
How would plants develop in a zero-gravity environment?
There isn't a zero gravity environment, but if there was, planets wouldn't form. Planets form by very large rock all attracting to each other and gain enough energy that the center pulls the surrounding rock and smooths then into a sphere. So if a zero gravity environment existed. There would be no planets.
Can plants be grown on the moon?
I think the question was in reference to the ability to grow plants in a controlled environment. And the answer would be yes. Using hydroponics systems we could do this. Without a controlled environment we would not be able to grow plants.
It is possible to grow plants in one modules of a real space station?
Yes, because people who lives in a space stations need an oxygen. Oxygen that people needs can be also taken from plants. That's it is also "possible" to plants to grow.
How do plants grow in outer space?
i dont think thay can grow because the plants need oxygen and there is not oxygen in outer space
Would plants still be green if there was no sun?
If there were no Sun, and no other source of radiant energy, the plants (and the entire planet) would quickly freeze. And since the color of an object is determined by the color of the light that is reflected by the object, with no light there would be no color, and everything would be black. If we grow plants under artificial light on a space station, then the light on the space station (even if artificial) would be the same kinds of light that we humans prefer, so the plants on the space station would continue to be green.
Can you grow in spaceis it posable?
Plants have been grown in space vehicles, but it is highly unlikely they can grow in space itself.
Why do you space out vegetables or plants in a garden?
you space the plants out so the plant can get all the light and minerals it needs to grow
Can seeds grow in dry places?
It depends on the plant. Plants adapt to their environment. For example; cactai, can store water in their pores for a long period of time, until the next rainfall. These catai grow in dry conditions, the seeds are spread with a small amount of water in them which allows them to grow. So, yes, but if you were to put a sunflower seed in the middle of the Sahara desert, it obviously wouldn't grow.
Is it possible to grow plants in the soil on the moon?
No, because there is no oxygen in space therefore it is not possible to grow plants in the soil on the moon

What do plants do to prevent overcrowding?
i say that plants separate so each of them have enough space to grow.
Can plants be grown in space?
Space will definitely affect plant growth to an extent. If a plant does not have enough space to grow, it might be deformed and eventually wither.
Do potatoes grow in space?
Many types of plants have been germinated in space aboard the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station. I was unable to find any information on anyone attempting to grow pumpkins to fruition, but it is theoretically possible, as long as you can account for providing water and nutrients in a zero-g environment, and can provide an adequate light source.
What do plants grow well in?
They grow well in farm lands where there is more space and efficient sunlight and that's how they can grow well.
