  Not especially. i grow my cells in plastic flasks and feed them with a liquid that has all the nutrients needed for the cells to grow in it. I have to incubate my cells at 37 degrees centigrade. I think If I grew tomatoes in this way I could make some massive plants!

  I know! Im going to try it! I might add a bit of radiation into the mix to see if I make super tomatoes that glow in the dark!
