you can conduct the experiment but it will not prove anything because you will not have anything to compare it to. For example, if you soak a potato in salt water and it grows in size, how would you know if it was the water or the salt that made it grow? You would have to soak a potato in plain water and one in salt water to see what happens.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
