Think Yuuzhan Vong
They've got a lot of Biotech. And by "a lot" I mean everything.

I think the core systems of the ship are mechanical. They basically build a framework to hold everything and then grow the ship around and through the frame, like vines on a lattice. Or kudzu! Man that stuff is crazy. Look at some of the pics further down the article if you've never seen it. That's it! The wraith use genetically engineered kudzu to grow their ships.

Well the first thing you do to make your own little hive is plant it. I would suggest a fairly large plant pot as hives tend to be a tad large. Next, make sure the roots of your hive have plenty of room to grow, make sure your hive gets plenty of water and sunshine and within 10,000 years BOOM! your own little hive for you to fly around until an Earth ship blows you up
The End

What you say may have some sense in it actually- where to hive ships go when all the lovely Wraith are in hibernation? They land on some planet the whole time- perhaps that how they do start growing off the planet life force while all additional mechanics are added as said above, also probably,organic- whoever maintains the hive fleet it appears to be the Keepers of the Wraith kind so they may be the ones that start the process off- except its not a plant pot you would need-it's more of a planet pot you need??!We are angels of death in black leather
Your demons without wings, we glide
We are angels in black with a hunger
Not your sheep to change or guide.
We are angels in the blackness for ever

You DO realize there is a HUGLY MASSIVE difference between Biological and Organic, Methane is organic, some ceramics are organic, the computer you are typing from is probably part organic. Matter of fact, if your computer doesn't have any Organic parts in it or on it, I'd be pretty derned surprised. We're not talking Species 8472 Bioships here. They distinctly said Organic ships, not biological.When the time comes to utilize Earth's best weaponry against an ailen threat. The weapon that will ultimately prove to be Earth's best will be the Zatnikitel

I dont know if you guys remember or not but the Seaquest DSV was a organic ship. They build a metal frame work and everything and then used Nathan Bridgers formula to setup the materials in order to make a skin grow across the frame making the hule. I think this probably isnt to far fetched of a idea for something that would be in the ocean or on land but in space there is no oxygen for something orangic to breath?
