There is nothing quite like plucking a ripe tomato from the garden and eating it right then and there. But, why would you want to grow your tomatoes upside down? Well, if you are a tomato lover and trying to produce the best growing tomatoes possible, you have undoubtedly heard about this increasingly popular method of growing your own tomatoes.

There are many reasons why growing your tomatoes upside down has become such a fad:

- unnecessary to use tomato cages, stakes, or ties

- decreased concerns with animals, slugs, or other soil related pests

- no tilling required and less weeding problems

- better air circulation, therefore, increased pollination and healthier plants

- can grow in almost any location – patio or balcony

- plants mature early, producing tomatoes 2 – 4 weeks earlier than if planted in the garden

- less soil diseases due to using fresh soil or a soilless mixture

- can grow larger plants than the patio varieties

- fewer spots on the tomatoes since the fruits do not touch the ground

- more space in the garden to grow other plants

- tomatoes can be picked off the plant without bending down or crawling around the plant

- watering is easy

If you have a small area in which to garden, growing your tomatoes upside down may provide the perfect solution. As long as the planter can be hung in a location that gets plenty of sun, you should have very few problems producing the best growing tomatoes imaginable. The small-fruited varieties such as cherry tomatoes are the choice recommended plants for growing upside down.
