Boring to Watch
I grow up toward the sky, and rather quickly too.
You say watching me do so, is boring to do.
I create a shelter, a cover, for creatures like bugs.
If you step on my base wet, you will hear a thick 'glug'.
I have given you clues, four, to be true.
So now, what am I? Can your brain tell you?

Very good!
Good riddle chutz42!
Lines 1 and 2 gave it to me from "watching the grass grow". I really like riddles that reference popular idioms to convery meaning. Those entertain me most.
Plus, you rhymed with 'glug'!
