Answer
Well the answer is that plants need light to grow so they will not grow in no light but can and do quite well under artifical night. Here is a couple of web links to information on artificial lighting. http://users.lycaeum.org/~npkaye/lightingfaq.html

A side note--This would have made a good experiment IF you had not waited until the last moment. My girls did the same thing. Please next time pick a project you do not have to grow anything and then you can wait until the last moment. Good Luck!
