so reading through the threads stroke me with the idea of bulding a hanging obsidian botanical garden.
someone mentioned about trees growing on obsidian, ok that's cool
then the problem is with shrub.
so far i tried the method of constructing and deconstructing floor over obsidian floor that has been noted in the thread, for multiple quick, testing embarks.
and every bit of those turned into stones like andesite, conglomerate, marble, dolomite etc. layer stones, rather than what i was hoping, soil.



so here's the quetion:
can above-ground plants grow on mud?

I found a way to put soil anyway you would like. Hope it helps. To my knowledge it is the only way to do it.
