My eighth grade students conducted a science experiment for which they tested the effects of a variety of additives to the soil of bean plants that had already germinated in water.

I don't remember all of them, but what was surprising to everyone was that the plant that had hand sanitizer added to the soil was stronger, healthier, and bigger than the one fed on water alone.
