Why would anyone grow a tomato upside down?
This is a question I keep getting asked after recently boasting my latest endevour to turn tomato growing on its head.

The first answer is simple - It's different.
Couple this with the expectation of a crop that is more resistant to soil-born disease, fungal diseases due to increased air circulation, pests such as snails,, slugs and dogs and then there's no need to stake the tomato plant. The question probably should be why would YOU grow a tomato any other way BUT upsidedown?
So here's the first picture of my UDT - I'm as curious about its progress as I'm sure you are, so I'll keep updates coming.
Wish me luck!
