Too much Duckweed!
Duckweed took over my two gallon fish bowl. I threw most of it (99%) away after a day or two.

First Try
My first try was in a small kiddie pool and it was not successful. I obtained 2 larger pools for a larger attempt, and I intend to use liquid fertilizer next time. I plan to put it on vacant land and I have to wait until the land is cleared, so it may be a few months before I can try again. But I will not forget.
