Instead of Spending money for a Commercial Upside Down Planter  make one yourself with  2 liter plastic Bottle.

Rinse our Some empty 2 liter bottles,take off the label and cut the bottom off.

Use a Sharp Knife/Cutter to cut off the Base of the bottle about 1 inch above the bottom.

Make 2-4 Supproting holes in the Bottle.

Thread the Twine in one punched hole and out the adjacent one,pulling the ends until they're even.


Poke few additional drainage holes in the bottle for better aeration and drainage.


Repear same process with other bottles.


Take a Piece of a Clothe and make a hole in the center.
Cut from one side to insert the plant.



Tomato plants that produce smaller sized tomatoes, such as cherry tomatoes or Roma Tomatoes ,
will perform better in the upside down planter,but you can experiment with larger sizes as well.


Wrap the Clothe around the base to cover the root ball.



Remove the Bigger Leaves to slide your plant though the small mouth of the bottle.

Position the Plant with the root ball as close to the top of the Container as Possible,making sure that the first true set of leaves remains outside the bottle opening.

Positioning the Root Ball near the Top will give the Roots plenty of space to grow upward.

Organic Compost provides a microbial active source of Organic Matter,
Humus and other Important soil builders required by plants to thrive.

Fill the Bottle with a Mixture of Potting soil and Compost as you hold the ball in Place.


Keep atleast 1-2 inch gap between the rim of the bottle and the soil surface for efficient watering.
