I saw an email a few years ago where they grew square watermelons. The put the watermelon in a square box, and when it grew, the watermelon had no place to go but in a cube shape. The good thing about it was that it was easy to store in the refridgerator.
Ah, yes. That's how they grow tomatoes (I think) inside wine bottles. They put them in there when they're small.
It's probably the same with ships in a bottle. They put them in when they're small, plug the opening, and they suffocate and can't grow anymore.
