Growing tomatoes upside down

I would say that you have to water them every day and it has to be only certain amount of water. It might work if you have enough shade and if you hang them under the rafters of your house or your balcony. I have some tomatoes in planters, and I found if I kept them out in the sun, they did not flower as good, so I;put them under our apple tree and now they are doing well -tomatoes and everything. But with tomatoes in planters or in the ground, any excess water goes into the soil or the grass. Whereas with upside down tomatoes, you may have a problem although with the roots first, it might work.

Sorry - I tried one of these this year and it didn't work out at all. The plant was trying to grow back up into its own roots and looked so sad. I finally planted it in the ground. But it could have been where I had to hang the hanger too. I do not know. I have seen the commercials but have yet to talk to anyone who has had any success in actually growing it. Good luck!!

I've never tried the Topsy Turvy tomatoes. My neighbor did & he loves them!!! He said he just followed the directions on the package & watered them as instructed & he had delicious tomatoes without all the hassle of planting them in a garden. MOST of all he bragged about NOT having to worry about weeds!!!

Hiya staryl, Never heard of growing tomatoes upside down. Ours always grew in the Garden near the back wall in the shade and they always came out wonderful but that´s not the case here I know. Come to think of it around here all the tomatoes are grown normally so that´s very interesting to know about upside down Tomatoes. Got no suggestions as such but I hope they turn out well for you. xxx

I have never heard of it.However strange as it may sound,perhaps there is someting in that.I guess the reason they do so is that they take the Earth's gravity into account.

i have never tried them either but they sound like something worth trying... i would just attempt it and see how it goes... you could evern do a little web surfing for some added hints and tips from other people... hope this helps

Ive heard about those but havent tried it myself. I was told that you dont have to buy a kit to do it, that anyone can grow upside down tomatoes. Im sure you'll have great success with it.
