How Do ‘Plants’ Grow Without Soil?

Plants don't always need dirt to grow. In some places, like a big glass of water or even in the air, they can drink their food and still grow strong.

Imagine your plant as a little athlete who drinks water and eats minerals from it, no need for shoes (or soil). Some plants get their nutrients straight from liquid, while others take them right out of the air. This helps save space and makes growing food easier in places where there's not much dirt.
