I tried the upside down Topsy Turvy thing and my tomato plant died but I can't think why? I didn't change anything with the watering, and I gave it plant vitamins but it just gave up. Luckly i have four other tomato plants, Two are regular and two are Beefmaster. If you could offer any reasons as to why it may have died please let me know because I want to try and grow something upside down again. By the way, nice plants.

Not sure why they would have died if watered properly. Did they get enough sun? That is the only thing I could think.

I luv to see peppers turn red.

Wow, You were ahead with some plants and then suddenly I was with some.

I think from observation that some plants do better in pots and others do better in the ground.

We must explore this more.

Great vid, thanks for sharing.

I cut up the red peppers and put them on a white pizza and it was awesome.

You are right about some plants doing better in pots than others. I've seen some folks that have upside down containers where their plants are doing better than mine even though they planted later. I've also seen some that are not as far along. So I guess sometimes mother nature just confuses me. Thanks for watching.

I miss gardening in my home town of Pittsburgh PA, living now in Oregon it sucks for growing in my area, even though there are a ton of closed down farms... hum, they all closed up wonder why. I grew an awesum cucumber plant one year they were huge, grew so many was giving them out to the neighbors. I cant get anything edible to grow except a few tiny underdeveloped tomotoes.

Lol cucumbers are scary big, Nice.

[chrisdietlmeier]

Pick that sucker ;D

if you have pinched your plants, they would have grown shorter but almost same amount of fruit, and if you did prune them they would have given you less fruits but better quality

Great video. Wonderful, productive garden with a great variety of vegetables. Really exciting alternative growing methods!

It got about 6-8 hours of sun everyday so I can't really think of why it may have died. It did fine for about 6 weeks until it started growing some tomatoes, then for some reason all the leaves dried up and it died. I can see why it would have died not having any leaves but I can't think of what caused the leaves to dry up so suddenly, unless the tomatoes were to much of a strain on it.
