I was thinking about it too. It sounds like a good idea so that the tomatoes don't lay on the ground.
I have a feeling though that the green hanger isn't as big as it appears on TV.

I've read other sites that give instructions, and everyone suggest a 5 gal bucket/container. There are so many scams on the Net, and TV...I just wanted to see what the results were before ordering. Some of the site shows you how to do your own... Anyway...good luck with your venture if you do try. If you do...keep me posted.

That is something I have wanted to try myself. The weather is starting to get better so I just might order it. Would like to see how well the cucumbers do in it also.

That is a good choice...and I've thought and wondered just how many additional veg/fruit would work in this manner. Okra sounds like a good prospect for me as well.

I don't grow vegetables in any direction, but I did see on another gardening thread that some had done this and were doing it again, so it must have worked. Hopefully some of them will pop into this thread for you guys.
Good luck to all of you with your vegetables this year, no matter how you grow them!
Oh, and if you plant basil with your tomatoes, it keeps the tomato bugs away.

I am only on for a few minuetes but I can answer your question.My girlfriend tried this and she grew about 6 upside down tomatoe plants in a 5 gallon bucket. She cut small circle in the bottom and put her plant in and at the top of the bucket she grew cucumbers and peppers. They worked great and had a great harvest.
Mid summer it did get to hot for them so they put up a shade above them only where direct sun couldn't scorch them , they still had evening sun and morning sun. And they continued producing till frost time. She is doing it again cause it worked out so great.
I am out of here so Hello and Goodbye everyone, I am off to go mushroom hunting.
