Giant plants?

Question

Used to know some people who had a garden full of giant breeds of plants.

I'm wondering ~ how are plants made to grow to giant size?

Also, wouldn't giant plants help us reduce carbon dioxide? (not all the CO2 obviously...)

Answer 1

I believe that plants are made to grow to giant size by genetic engineering.  This is if you are talking about specific plant breeds.

Hopefully you will get a horticulturist who will be able to give you a better answer.

Here is a link to an interesting article about how tiny particles can change how much carbon that a plant can asorb.

I think the Chinese astronauts once put plant seeds into the space planets and let it grow for a few months. The plants then grow twice or triple sizes as it were so small on the earth before. Yes, the plants can reduce carbon dioxide by photosynthesis of growing process of absorbing carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Why green living is good and healthy for our community. Hong Kong is known as the most polluted city in this world with high rise buildings that forms a cement forestry.
