Yes, but it takes a special "green house" container and watering system.
Yes, plants can grow in space, and experiments aboard the International Space Station (ISS) have demonstrated this. Astronauts have successfully cultivated various plant species, including lettuce and radishes, in microgravity conditions. These studies help scientists understand how plants adapt to different environments and are crucial for future long-duration space missions, where growing food could support human life.
Plants would require a controlled environment with sufficient light, temperature, humidity, and air circulation. They would also need access to nutrients through a hydroponic or aeroponic system, as well as a way to manage water and waste recycling within the limited space of the station.
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.
Currently, there are no farmers in outer space. However, there are experiments being conducted to grow plants in space for future long-duration missions. These experiments aim to provide fresh food for astronauts and understand how plants grow in microgravity.
Life support systems on the space station, such as those providing oxygen, temperature control, and air filtration, help create conditions similar to Earth's. Additionally, recycling systems are employed to manage waste and ensure a sustainable environment onboard. Advanced technology like hydroponic systems can also be used to grow plants for food and air purification.
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.
i dont think thay can grow because the plants need oxygen and there is not oxygen in outer space
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.

Plants have been grown in space vehicles, but it is highly unlikely they can grow in space itself.
you space the plants out so the plant can get all the light and minerals it needs to grow

No, because there is no oxygen in space therefore it is not possible to grow plants in the soil on the moon
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.
Blueberries require about 6 to 8 feet of space between plants to grow effectively.
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.
