Brock and Marta love organic food! Even Buf and Henry eat organic. Brock builds a raised-bed veggie garden (with the help of a real handyman — Frank), and he and Marta plant some organic seeds.

This video will be the first in a video series documenting how an Upside Down Hanging Vegetable Garden (my first attempt) grows during the 09 season. Not sure how often I will update, I’m guessing right now every 2 weeks or so.

I’ve seen a bunch of helpful videos on how to make the planters and a few suggestions on how to care for them, but I didn’t find many “Series” on the progression of vegetable growth specifically with the Upside Down Vegetables. So that is why I wanted to make these videos.

I absolutely welcome and want questions/comments/suggestions/tips (keep it related to the topic). I also posted some potential questions below. This is my first attempt at any type of vegetable growing. All I have learned so far has been from different websites and of course YouTube videos (thanks to all that have posted their Upside Down videos and general veggie gardening videos).

Pretty much what I am trying to do is see how well I can grow vegetables upside down. I didn’t want to dig up my yard as I don’t have much space, plus hanging vegetables has benefits like no weeding, staking, less bugs, and more (at least this is what I’ve read). Basically I wanted something easy, or at least what I think will be easy. Not sure exactly how the series will evolve, but I figure this is a start.

Here’s some general questions you may want to know (ask away with anything else too):
-Veggie Garden Location?: Buford, GA
-When did I plant?: Early March 09′
-How much sun daily?: 8-12hrs
-Soil Type: Miracle Grow Moisture Control.
-Anything else in soil (fertilizer, manure, etc)?: No, nothing else in soil. I want to see how well they will do with just this soil. I’ll probably add some miracle grow fertilizer after 3 months.
-What am I growing: 4 types of tomatoes (Bush Early Girl, Heatwave, Husky Cherry Red, Better Boy), Red Peppers, Jalapenos, Banana Peppers, Yellow Squash, Zucchini, Strawberries.
-Did I grow any plants from seeds: No. For me it was more convenient to get them already grown and plant them upside down (which is pretty much how all the videos and websites said to do it).
