Yeah you get a slushy green mess

Agree, it won't work. Plant cells contain water. When they are frozen the water forms into ice and expands, rupturing the plant cell walls. Thats why its a mush when it is defrosted.

You can freeze them in time if you have a time machine .. I know of a guy who has one, I've seen it on the telly. It looks just like a police box
