The comets live very short active lives on a geological timescale, 100,000's to millions of years, but Jupiter's gravity well is quite hungry and continually replenishes the supply when comets wander its way from the Kuiper Belt or Oort Cloud.
Going from native comet goop to pure water, and resin/fiber for the pressure vessel, is an interesting problem in metabolic engineering, which combines genetic engineering with an in-depth knowledge of plant metabolism, in order to optimize certain growth features (in this case cellulose and resin output, and resistance to vacuum conditions).
I'd probably started with a fast-growing fiber plant like hemp or jute or kudzu, and throw in some genes from deep-salt-lake creatures that maintain an active water gradient across their outer membrane, which should also be pretty good for vacuuum protection.
