No. Since the moon has no atmosphere, it never rains which prevents plants from growing and there are extreme temperature changes between day and night so no plant could survive these extreme variations in temperature.

ofcourse not because the moon doesnt have gravity to hold the soil together and the plant needs water and sunlight and lots and lots of soil to keep it together

-------------As of now, no. By 2025(or so), we are supposedly going to have a settlement on the moon. And soon somehow find a way to grow plants.

no, but it sometimes appears larger due to the full moon. The moon hosts no life, so it cannot grow.

Yes, the moon has sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. This is all a plant needs to grow and do photosynthesis. It has been done before.

Hope this helps!
