Topsy Turvy, Garden Containers, Upside Down Pots, Growing Tomatoes, Peppers & Herbs Update 5

Hope everyone had a good 4th of July!

Not much has changed. Everything still pretty healthy. Bell peppers are changing colors and the cucumbers are doing well. Tumbling Toms are producing several ripe tomatoes every nite.

Be warned: I am now formally planning my garden for next year. Boy, am I gonna have some fun! My wife can't believe we haven't really even started harvesting a lot of veggies and I'm already looking forward to next year....LOL.

Thanks for looking. Any advice, please leave me a post.

how do you grow them upside down, do you put a large hole in the base off the pot? also do you have to top up the pots ?thanxs

@mrsexpistols36 Yeah, I cut a hole about 2" in diameter in the bottom of the pot so the plant can grow down. Not sure what ya mean by top up the pots. Once in a long while you'll get a weed and we'll pluck it out. Thanx for watching.

What soil do you use to get your bell pepper so large? ours never seem to grow well at all, and the ones that do grow end up being very small and with thin walls.

u got a nice garden :) i wish i can have like this too in my yard :P

i get a lot of white flies in my edible plants and they are absolutely impossible to eliminate. any tips?

[friend2animals66]

Very nice! I was wondering is there an advantage to growing things upside down as opposed to right side up?  Seems like almost a wasted use of space on top. Would it be possible to grow things on both the top and bottom? Hmmm sounds like an experiment worth trying!
