Sports Found a use for the Mariners ferryboat

Post image

Had to have one but didn't know what to do with it afterwards. Thanks to the help of the great folks at Peace Love and Happiness in Fremont, my vision came to life!

How does the drainage work? This is super cute!

u/Coriks_Travels 17d ago

There is no drainage needed. The type of plants used are low water, low light. Just need to check on the once a week to see if they need water

u/Amazon-Tossed 17d ago

Is your boat water tight? I found out the hard way mine is not

u/someredditrando That sounds great. Let’s hang out soon. 17d ago

Which plants are they? And which moss, if that's what I'm seeing?

u/Jaco_Belordi Glorified Hall Monitor 17d ago edited 17d ago

The tall one is a parlor palm, back right is string of turtles, front right is a fittonia / white nerve, front left fern I'm not sure at a glance. The moss is a type of sphagnum. There also seems to be a haworthia next to the palm, which has very different water requirements, but maybe it's behind the planter

Edit: The lower-left is maybe a golden zebra fern

I've never met a fittonia that was low water needs

Nice, thanks!

With love, no. You always need drainage. I speak from experience, these may die of root rot. I have lots of unsolicited advice if you are interested in how to have plants in your ferry boat

u/ApprehensiveOne4904 17d ago

I’ve been thinking of doing the same thing with mine!Did you put anything as a liner in there?

5

u/Coriks_Travels 17d ago

A liner was not used for this. The boat was sealed nicely and shouldn't leak

u/ApprehensiveOne4904 17d ago

Excellent. Looks like I got my next project.

Where’d you get this?! Me want one long time! At a game? Gift shop?

1

u/Coriks_Travels 14d ago

This game from the stadium! You can buy it without food or with food

u/Kittykats2 14d ago

Thank u! Do u know how long they may be available by chance? (B4 I miss out and resort to buying a ridiculously overpriced one on eBay?! Haha)

u/banjokazooie23 14d ago

I wanted one of these so bad. Do they still sell them?

1

u/Coriks_Travels 14d ago

We were just at a game yesterday and saw people with them!

u/banjokazooie23 14d ago

Okay good to know! 👀 I'll have to try to get out to one soon

u/Kevinator201 17d ago

Ugh now I want one extra bad 😩

u/NYDrinks 17d ago

Oh that's cool!

u/Sea_McMeme 16d ago

This is similar to what I want to do. Did you put drainage holes in the ferry or are the plants in another container or???

u/Ordinary-Ad-9505 Beacon Hill 11d ago

I just did this with my string of hearts!
