Science Project... The effect of coconut milk and cytokinins on plant growth...Help!?

I am doing this science project explained in the question and what I am wonder is if can you grow a plant from a cutting (leaf and stem cutting) in a petri dish? I am planning to use the coconut milk (which contains the cytokinins which stimulate mitosis) in various percentages mixed with water to see which does would be most effective. Would this work? Any suggustions to make it better?
