How to Grow Space Habitats Organically

Space habitats permit more options in that you can more closely replicate conditions on earth than you ever could by terraforming any plants we currently know of. Here though you can have enormous deep sea environments where the pressure rises only very slowly with depth because of the low world gravity. And amusingly the gravity gets weaker as you descend causing pressure to rise even more slowly allowing for marine habitats of a depth which no planet could ever permit. See that episode, Oceans in Space for details.
