No, it doesn't. Plants don't hear.
Find a better science project. This one's been done. Ad nauseum.

I find this highly unlikely. If a plant grows faster when you play music near it, then it is probably due to one, more heat because of the waste heat given off by the music player, or two, certain frequencies of sound causing biological changes such as increasing sap flow or something. Even if this was the case, which is not very likely, it would be essentially certain that other sounds (for example continuous tones at certain frequencies) would have a larger beneficial effect than what humans consider music.
In other words, the answer to your question is almost certainly no.

Yes....I don't know why but positive and negative energy can effect the growth of plants also. So do words.

This question seems to be asked every 30 minutes.
Plants respond to decibels (> 100db) equivalent to the sound of a lawnmover. Plants do not have any organs for detecting or processing sounds.

yes, I did an experiment about that and the plants that have music died and the ones that were without music grown strong and healthy, I used any kind of music, the one of the radio.

i think so. My friend did an experiment on it and rock and roll seems to give plants the boogie!
i hope thats a good thing. i don't know why tho. hope i was helpful. :)
