No, soaking a plant seed in food dye will not make it sprout with color. The color of the plant comes from pigments produced by the plant itself, not from external dyes. The dye may penetrate the seed coat and reach the embryo, but it will not affect the color of the sprout once it germinates. Additionally, using food dye on plant seeds may harm the seed and affect its ability to germinate successfully.
