How to Create an Upside Down Tomato System Like Topsy Turvy – Update
Topsy Turvy has become the latest craze in home gardening. Growing tomatoes upside down looked like a fun thing to do for me, but I thought I could create the same thing without the cost.
So I took some peat pellets I had,
soaked them in water and added a beef steak tomato seed.
within one week, I had a lovely sprout looking very healthy.
Next, I took a hanging basket I had in my garden supplies, inserted the sprout through the hole in the bottom and added potting soil.
The peat pellet will hold the tomato plant in place.
I am hoping this little experiment will yield some big luscious tomatoes in no time. I will take pictures every week so you can see the progress.
If any of you decide to try this, send pictures and let us know how yours is doing.
06/07/2010 Update on Creating an Upside Down Tomato Growing System
It has been approximately three weeks since I started this experiment and from all appearances, the home -made upside down tomato planter is working just fine. As you can see, there’s quite a bit of healthy growth since the tiny sprout was added to the pot.
It has been really hot here, so I am curious to see how this summer’s heat may affect the growth of this system. So far so good.
