This is a June 2, 2009 update of my upside down garden. I have a few additions this week. First of all, I built a trellis for my cucumbers. I had so many of them that I had to find places to grow them. Also I put a few cucumbers in an upside down bucket. At least I will be able to tell which way will be a better way to grow them. I also thinned out all the varieties of the squash I am growing so that they will do better and have space to grow. All the tomato plants are doing quite well and I have my first visible tomato so I am pretty happy about that. Personally, I think that tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers and the best things to grow upside down. I decided not to grow the squash that way because of the size of the plant itself not to mention how big the fruit gets. I added strawberries and raspberries this week and am going to put in blackberries in next week. I hope everyone is doing well with their gardening this year so far. I know I am having a good time. It is pretty much consuming my life at the moment. If anyone has any comments or suggestions, please email me or post them. Also, if you subscribe to my video series, I will do the same for you. I am always looking for ideas to improve my garden and I know there are some good ones out there. Until next time, take care and happy gardening. Kelly
