Yes, it does affect how plants grow.

Water carries nutrients throughout the plant that is in the soil. If there is extra nutrients in the water than it will add to the nutrients that is already there, causing the plant to grow better.

All plants have an optimum medium pH range (soil or non-soil) which will allow the maximum uptake of nutrients, when the pH is in the right range a plant will grow vigorously as all its needs are met, conversely a plant receiving water that is too acid or too alkaline (below 5.0 acid and above 8.0 alkaline) cannot absorb nutrient and all micro and macro elements will be 'locked out' resulting in poor, slow growth and eventual death.

Houseplants survive poor treatment because most composts are naturally 6.8 to 7.0 around the same pH as most domestic water. Hard water areas around 7.5, soft water around 6.5 all within the ideal uptake range for most plants. And that is it!

Different liquids can affect plant growth in various ways. Water is essential for plant growth, providing hydration and helping transport nutrients. Liquids like fertilizer can provide additional nutrients to promote growth, while some liquids, like vinegar or saltwater, can be harmful and inhibit plant growth due to their acidic or saline properties. Ultimately, the type and concentration of liquids can have different effects on plants' health and development.


What are the factors that affect plant growth?

Light, water, carbon dioxide.

Which influences the rate of a plant growth in different types of plants?

Factors such as light intensity, temperature, water availability, soil nutrients, and genetic makeup can influence the rate of plant growth in different types of plants. Different plants may have different requirements for optimal growth, so it is important to provide the right conditions for each specific plant species.


Does salt water affect bean plant growth?

Yes, salt water does affect bean plant growth. Many think that it can make them grow better than regular water, but the water can affect the natural sodium in the bean making them taste saltier.

Does different dirt affect the growth of a plant?

Yes, different types of soil can affect the growth of a plant. Factors such as nutrient content, pH levels, drainage, and texture of the soil can impact a plant's ability to absorb water and nutrients. It's important to choose soil that is suitable for the specific needs of the plant species you are growing.
