I bought from QVC 2 containers for tomatoes in which you put the plant upside down fastened in from the bottom. Layer 3 layers of compost or etc from the top, which has a cap on it to water from the opening. They say a tomato plant is tropical. The roots grow to the top and absorb the (sunlight heat) which is filtered. Got a t-post, clothesline, to hang them by. Do have 1 tomato and lots of blooms. Well will see how this turns out. lol to all Dana Elliott ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
