Foam Island update. The island soil is staying nice and moist in this 100 degree heat. The turtles, (see three on the right side) with their sharp toe nails have not damaged the heat gun harden skin of the foam. I bolted the first two layers of the island foam along with liquid nail because I wasn't sure the liquid nail would hold up, but the third layer is just held together by liquid nail and nothing has come loose. The cup with one flower in it and the roots just dangling in the water is short and not producing any flowers and the roots are turning black. But it hasn't turned yellow. I will do a close up photo of this plant at the end of the season. On the left you can see the spinach mustard I planted around June 15th. I think a vegetable island would do just fine.
