If your goal is to plant healthy, tasty, tomatoes without having to exert a lot of physical strength – the upside down method may be for you. This is also a good way for individuals to plant tomatoes when they don’t have a sizable plot of land with which they can work.

There’s more than one way to plant a hanging upside down tomato plant.

 

Now it’s time to learn how you can use less fertilizer, save more time, and expend less energy when you plant your tomatoes this year:

 

Use a coconut-lined hanging basket.

You can easily use a coconut-lined hanging basket to plant a hanging upside down tomato. All you’ll need is a tomato plant, a hook, dirt, and coconut-lined hanging basket with a hole in the frame. Be sure to water your plant regularly!

 

Use a 5 gallon bucket.

For this project all you’ll need is organically fertilized soil, a utility knife, several feet of thick cord, a 5 gallon bucket, and a tomato seedling.

Although quite functional, some people don’t find 5 gallon buckets aesthetically pleasing. If you feel the same, you can always purchase planters from your local garden center that are made just for planting upside down tomato plants.
