Better yet, let's ignore that sour grapes posting and send me your
address and I will send you a bag of nice fresh duckweed.

Then I need to get some some goldfish and sell the boat.

I really have a hard time believing the goldfish thing but I am never
too old to learn something new.

One thing for sure, the ducks don't eat it.

I believe the goldfish story. :-)

Many years ago when I kept goldfish in an outside pond I needed to
grow duckweed in a separate pond without goldfish. When I had a
sufficient supply I would scoop up a net full to give them which they
treated as food and it would be all gone in 5 - 10 minutes.
