Growing Vegetables…?
some one was telling me about growing tomatoes in a bucket upside down and that her tomato plant did really well she cut a hole in the bucket and planted the sprouted side down through the hole and hung it from a tree….what is the technical name for it? and have any of you done it? did it turn out good? also…..im growing cucumbers and squash….someone said they need to be on a trellis? what is the best way to grow those? and also….onions…..i planted a few to many in one container because i wasnt sure if theywere all going to grown they are spaced about….an inch or so apart should they be ok or should i take some out? thank you!

YEP GROWING TOMATOS IN BUCKET IS PRETTY GOOD IDEA,,,BUT YOU WANT GIT MANY AND THEY WILL BE SMALL,,THE ROOTS DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH ROOM TO GROW TO MAXIMUM STRENGTH TO PROVIDE NOURISHMENT FOR THE FRUIT, ALSO ROOTS DRY OUT QUICKER AND HAVE TO BE WATERED AND FEED MORE OFTEN,,CUKE ARE USUALLY GROWN IN THE HILL SYSTEM,,,BOUT 8 FEET APART,,,LET THE RUNNERS RUN ON THE GROUND,,, BUT ,,,YOU CAN PLANT CUKES IN HANGING BUCKET ALSO ,,LET EM HANG DOWN TO THE GROUND BUT THEY WANT DO WELL EITHER FOR THE SAME REASON,, BULB TYPE ONIONS NEED TO BE 6 TO 8 INCHES APART,,MULTIPLYING ONIONS CAN BE BOUT 3 INCHES APART,,, SQUASH NEEDS TO BE PALNTED BOUT 3 FEET APART,,IN ROWS 3 FEET APART,,,NO NEED FOR TRELLIS,,,EXCEPT FOR ZUCCHINI MAYBE,,AS THEY DO FORM RUNNERS
