Here is a place to post pictures of your plants and veggies! These are my tomato's...

One rule; there has to be a BOAT in the picture

Have fun,

I think it might sink if I do that, but I could try

I've tried a tow test but hadn't thought of a tomato test...

Don't have them in/on your boat when visiting Australia - Quarantine will get "upset", and customs will think they are being used to hide/disguise marijuana
Otherwise I would commend such approaches on cruising boats as a source of fresh veg... Tomatoes are perennial & in hydroponic systems can be a very productive & prolific food source, now for some chopped onion, chillies & limes & a fresh fish to cold cook in the mix - yummmm... - around Rabaul the dish is called "nama"

While on the subject of the bush, cling to a gum tree, great way to avoid sea sickness!

I spent an inordinate amount of time last weekend planting arborvitaes, a few ferns, and dozens of vinca groundcover plants. The astute observer will notice in the second picture a cleverly concealed secret of the Vikings. Apparently, by removing the sail, they could access an emergency corkscrew. This is not something you're likely to learn on the History Channel.

If you really try hard you can even grow pumpkins on your boat - I have - I was going to say harvest in about a month, but the download took so long it should be ready any day now...
