Did you know you can grow tomatoes upside down. You can.

I first saw it when I was walking through a nearby neighbourhood and someone had a hanging planter with a fruit bearing tomato plant coming out the bottom.

We planted some yesterday.

The major benefit, as I see it, is that you don’t have to put stakes or cages on the plants because gravity holds them straight and the tomato fruit just hang putting the branches and stems in tension.

Also, no stooping to pick them.

Also you can plant a right side up one too.

A few weeks ago we finally put out the leaning tower of pizza (boxes) for recycling.

There are 75 boxes there. Consider also that these are from only Twice the Deal pizza. Boxes from other places were not included in the tower.
