How Do You Plant Upside Down Tomato Plants In Regular Hanging Baskets?
Upside Down Tomatoes can now be a regular part of your garden design and not an eyesore you try to hide. Simply use regular large hanging baskets with the addition of a few annuals to go along with your color scheme. You can easily use this method to grow upside down peppers and other vegetable plants as well. The only exception is vine vegetables where you need to provide a trellis next to the planter and when the young squash, cucumbers or melon fruit appear, you attach them loosely to the trellis via cheesecloth cradles which help to support their increasing weight. Mix together one-cup crushed eggshells, one part of composted manure, one part sphagnum peat moss and one part topsoil. Set aside Dissolve the fertilizer into the water in the watering can per label directions. Set aside Pound the garden shepherd hook firmly into the ground with the sledgehammer until end of the hook is at least 5-feet off the ground. Remove the 3-pronged aluminum hook and wires from the hanging basket.
