According to this an experiment I found, they get taller near a magnet.

"The effect of the electric field intensity on the growth of the bean
sprouts are presented. The study is focused on the growing rate of the
height of the stems and the length of the roots. The bean sprouts are
experimented under the condition among without electric field, with
electric field at 10 kV/m and 25 kV/m, respectively. The growing rate
of bean sprouts have been observed every day for 5 days. The
experimental results indicate that the bean sprouts under high
electric field intensity have a better growth comparison to the low
electric field intensity based on statistical analysis."
Summary:
"The effect of electric field intensity on the growth of bean sprouts
are presented. The comparison among without electric field, with
electric field at 10 kV/m and 25 kV/m are investigated and
experimented. The temperature and relative humidity are controlled at
28°C and 65%, respectively. The height of stems and the length of
roots have been considered in the experiment based on statistic
approach. The experimental results show that the mean for 5 days of
the height of stems and the length of roots are effected by electric
filed
intensity. However, some period, the height of stems in with electric
field intensity at 10kV/m is lowest. The height of stems and the
length of roots in with electric field intensity at 25 kV/m are
highest and longest. In further work, an effect of various period
times for apply electric field intensity on the growth of bean sprouts
are investigated."

The solar winds and the magnetic field is the key to our radiation shield that protects us.

Probably not. But who knows what we will discover in the next few years.
Why don't you set up some controlled experiments and let us know your results?

It is believed by some that most roots grow toward gravity while most stems grow to light.
