I have a tomatoe plant in a topsy turvey planter. from the day i first hung it in May till July 10the the plant started curving up as it grew. Today it suddenly was hanging down . I inspected the stem and there are open cracks in the stem from the sudden direction change the plant took. Will my plant survive ?

Thank you for your site. I purchased a “Hang N’ Go” tomato pot a few days ago but the directions were more than sparse. I now know how to plant it thanks to you.

I have nodules on the stem of my hanging Roma tomato plant. A lot of them about six inches down from the root. Obviously I can’t mound dirt around it. What can I do? I already have about six tomatoes growing. Is the plant in danger or should I just water it less often?

I need some help please! Last year I tried growing tomato plants upside down in 5 gallon buckets; they did great until mid summer. The plants were flowering and producing good looking tomatoes and then the stem started to almost shrivel and turn brownn right at the base of the plant. I thought it might have been too much weight on the plant. This year I used a much lighter “soil mix” and used Roma plants but it appears that it is happening again. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what causes this? Thanks.

I am not a gardner but, in retirement I decided to try growing upside down tomatoes today. Got a fully grown plant with a couple of tomatoes and a few buds on it, hung in the sunniest place I have which is about 50%. I am in Zone 6 , typical northern winter. Put about a tablespoon of miracle gro and half filled one of the planters , the other planter (with growing tomatos) was purchased already. filled up.
I intend to keep them going beyond the usual cooling dates of mid September. IF the weather gets below 40 degrees, I will put a grow lamp above the plants to go on whenver the temp falls that low. I put a gallon of water in each planter but very unsure of how to ascertain when it needs more water., I could make an automnatic water feeder device but not knowlegeable enough to know how much such plants should get

So I invested a bit of cash and hoping my lamp will allow the plant to survive longe than usual — all to get that fresh tomato taste.
Thahnks for any advice you can offer this relative neophyte!!

I am in Denver. My large hanging tomato plant has 12 bunches of yellow blooming flowers or small tomatoes. It is in a commercial plastic container… probably a 3 gallon container. I planted it in mid-June. I water it (about a quart) daily but it seems to look wilted nearly every day. One of the tomatoes had 3 black spots on the bottom. I thought it might be a worm. It wasn’t. I have read that the black spots might be caused by too much water. So what should I do? I would appreciate advice. Thanks.

Don’t know waht went wrong. set a store bought unit as directed using good bought soil, tomato plant enhancer and what looked to be a strong seeding. It immediately witlted and has now all turned brown. looks terrible. Is this a shock phase. I keep watering with a gallon of water twice daily but doesnt seem to help. about 4 days now.

Enter Your Comment My plants flourished and have produced dozens of fruit. Now, however, while there is still fruit, the leaves have become brown and crisp, dead. I pulled them off early, but now most of the leaves have turned. The fruit is still ripening but no new blossoms are coming on.
What can I do?
