upside-down and bag planting - February 21st, 2007 at 07:58 PM
Keep seeing magnificent tomatoes and strawberries growing upside down (in photos.) Curious how to do this with a regular garbage bag or something. I'm particularly interested in tomatoes. I was thinking maybe I could actually do this in the front yard without it looking too bad.
Can I use a regular shepherd's hook or will it get too heavy?
How do I make the container/hang the bag?
Which types of tomatoes are best for this? I have some cherry tomatoes started in the basement already- they JUST germinated. Can I use these?
OR do I transplant the plants into the container/bag or start them there to begin with? And HOW??
You can answer anything else I forgot to ask too!! :rolleyes:
How-to links are always appreciated too!
Thanks a bunch,
