It's because they aren't getting enough exercise. When you walk, or run, or even just STANDING, it takes energy to pump the blood uphill to your heart. In space, in "zero-G", there isn't as much work, and it's all easier because you don't have to lift things against gravity.
They do not have the gravitational pull pulling their spines down in space.
without the pull of gravity the bones separate slightly, the growth is only a few millimeters to a centimetre or two.
You know when they are taller than they were!
there are different plants in the country,so some plants doesn't grow taller even you put some fertilizer on it.. but it became healthy..:)
Yes, you can become 2 inches taller in space; but will return to normal height when back on earth. Gravity compresses the soft cartilage in your spine as you sit and stand up all day; so you are taller in the morning than at any other time in the day. This resets at night when you lie down, so no gravity would mean no compression.
Trying to grow to reach a light source

Forest trees are taller because there is more space for them to grow. Forest trees are taller because there is more space for them to grow.
i dont think thay can grow because the plants need oxygen and there is not oxygen in outer space
The astronuts grow their own garden herbs in space
Yes up to 2 inches due to less gravity on their spines. They return back to the mormnal height on earth. It is similar to the effect sleeping has on the spine. On awakening you are 1/2" or so taller than in the evening.
