Upside Down Tomato Gardening
One trend that the home gardener is following is upside down tomato growing. This growing method is different to the traditional tomato growing. The growing container is suspended and the tomato plants grows down from the bottom of the container towards the ground. There are several benefits to this type of growing.
Upside down tomato growing is perfect for those with little space, such as only a courtyard to garden in. You can easily hang the container on a sunny balcony, or patio, and grow wonderful tomatoes. Additionally, when using this growing methods there is no need for staking the tomato plants. Pests are also greatly reduced when growing tomatoes upside down. Also there is a great bonus in that there will be no need to worry about ground fungus, or cut worms, destroying your delicious crop.
Upside down tomato growing is a trend that is catching of fast. The benefits are great, especially when one takes into account that it opens up gardening to those with no space for a traditional garden. Those with a traditional garden should try the upside down method at least once, because you may find being able to hang these plants near the kitchen is so handy. What you do need to be aware of though is to fertilize the plants at the right time.
Although tomatoes easily grow without so much pampering, fertilizer for tomatoes has to be maintained if excellent plant and fruiting is to be considered. However, adding fertilizer depends on the nutrient of the soil.
Observation though has it that organic composts are the best fertilizer for tomatoes.When planting the upside down tomato it is a good idea to use some organic compost in the potting soil and then when the plant starts to fruit add tomato fertilizer once a week.
If you want to make your own organic compost mix you can infuse organic compost in water, drain off the water and use that to water your upside down tomato. Another good tip is to spread broken egg shells on the soil because tomatoes need calcium for good growth and this is found in egg shells.
Don’t fertilize your upside down tomato plant too early as the goodness will be taken up by the leaves rather than go into producing large sweet tomatoes

The Upside Of Down $11.99 “Like a roller coaster ride, life is filled with stomach-wrenching drops, dips, and sudden curves. But there is an upside to being down: God, who works in and through our troubles and never abandons us to disaster, provides a well-engineered superstructure and a carefully planned set of tracks and guardrails. Even when the ride is too hectic, unsettling, and twisted for us to sense His support and guidance, He is still there. This book is about learning to trust in God’s work and provisions as the divine superstructure underneath every trial. When we understand the ultimate purpose behind our suffering, we will be willing to stay on board.” |
