After a healthy 5-6 weeks upsidedown the plant appears to be wilting. The color is green. Does it need a net or other support. No tomatoes are present yet. The stem exiting the planter seems less rigid and too flexible. Any experience?

The "other site" for hanging tomatoes said that you can plant herbs, cucumbers, peppers and zucchini in this manner. I can't wait to try this!!! This will solve my problem of the sunlight being blocked by trees in my ground garden site! :)

This is fantastic! I have a herb and vegetable garden and every time I go to the garden center I buy too many tomato plants - now I know how to plant the ones that won't fit in my raised beds...genius!!!! I heard they raise melons upside down in Japan to save space. Know anything about it?

This is great. Will definitely try this as I've been checking into the upside down planters that have been ranging from $10 up. Thank you. 5 stars!!

on 5/12/2009 I have done all of the above, Plants started out great, blooming etc. However now the leaves are turning yellow. What causes this?
