It proves we can grow plants in the available regolith. Given the results of the experiment as shown in the article a not all obvious result that highlights some challenges. E.g. the plant growing in the Apollo 11 sample turned purple from all the stress, while plants in all moon samples grew slower and showed genetic stress markers. That alone should tell us that growing plants there isn't just adding water and nutrients.
