Not all plants grow in sand. Plants produce food from a combination of elements in their environment, including sunlight, water, and nutrients in the soil (or sand, I suppose).
no,they do not
Marigolds will grow best in well-draining, nutrient-rich soil. They may struggle to grow in sand or pebbles because these mediums do not retain moisture well and may not provide enough nutrients for the plant to thrive.
Different plants need different soil requirements. It all depends on the quality of your soil, type of soil, and the amount of nutrients and fertilizer you give the plants in your garden. Sand, silt and clay are the three basic soil types. You can have a combination of all three in different quantities. If you are unsure of the type of soil you have, you can have your soil tested at any garden center. They will be more than happy to help you choose the best plants for your garden.
Plants can not grow in sand alone.If you provide the necessary nutrients and water, as in Hydroponic gardening, then you can grow healthy plants in sand or gravel. But that is not 'sand alone'.Likewise, plants will grow well in sand that has organic material and other soil enrichers mixed into it. Again, that is not 'sand alone'.Plants can grow in just about any medium, as long as they have water and nutrients. Unfortunately, sand doesn't hold onto water and it contains no organic material, so there is nothing for plants to use for nourishment.As you can see at a beach or in a sand desert, some plant species have evolved to handle conditions close to 'sand alone', usually by sending roots down far enough to find water, or by growing very fast whenever there is a rain, or by absorbing the rainwater quickly and storing it for future use. However, even these plants can only survive where there are some nutrients mixed in the sand. Pure sand will not do.(Please note: this question concerns growing in 'sand alone', not 'sandy soil' or 'in a desert'.)
because soil has more nutrients in it which is better than in the sand
Depending on the size of the grain of sand, sand is best. It holds more moisture then dirt does.
Sand.
because the sand is not capable for plants to grow.first the sand has a little percent of nutrient for plants,the sand is weak to carry the plants root,only the coconut tree will grow on the sand or other plants only

does a pineapple grow best in sand or soil
Plants can grow in soil, some grow in water, some grow in sand.

The best garden soil typically has a good balance of organic matter, nutrients, and proper drainage. Loamy soil, which is a mix of sand, silt, and clay, is often considered ideal for most plants as it provides good aeration and drainage while retaining moisture and nutrients. It's always best to test your soil and make amendments based on the specific needs of the plants you are growing.
because the sand they grow in doesnt contain energy but the suns light does and from that photosynthesis
