Okay, so yesterday I was in a mood. When I get in a mood, I go shopping. It’s a bad habit, but it is what it is. ANYHOW, so I wandered into my local Home Depot where I discovered they had the Topsy Turvy upside down planters on sale.
I always thought the idea of spending 10-20 bucks on a piece of plastic that hangs upside down to grow your tomatoes was stupid, when you could easily make your own. (And I’m sure I will eventually, I’d just never gotten around to it.) But these were on sale for under $5. The tomato planter wasn’t the original… it’s the one for tomatoes and herbs. And I picked up the strawberry one as well. Today while scrambling around to find 15-30 strawberry plants for my planter I also picked up the one for peppers. I’m an addict……. Do they have a 12 step program for gardeners?
I figure that for 5 bucks a pop it’s worth an experiment. With shepherds hooks, I’ll be hanging them near the pumpkin patch. Stay tuned… it’s time I go out and plant. J
