    Default Upside-down tomatoe planters, work w/ mj?

    I love to garden edibles, chiefly cherry tomatoes. Last summer I grew some tomato plants in a 5 gal bucket, but they were suspended in the air, growing downwards/upside down out from the bottom of bucket (intentionally). I'm sure you've seen this kinda thing advertised b4 & it works great. My question is, has anyone tried growing weed like that? Just to satisfy my curiosity. I don't plan on attempting it till cultivating weed is no longer a crime. Just wondered if pot would work the same way? and I thought, that way, indoor growers in cali or canada could possibly maximize their light efficiency. I'm environmentalist and hate to see wasted energy, even if i'm not the one participating

No for real though I think that I am going to snagg it and see what would happen.

    I grew like this last year. got about a half ounce of of the plant and it tasted like dirt. The sister clone to it that was grown right below it in the ground made nine ounces with the same dirt, light and nutes. The plant never really seemed to be very healthy looking always kinda light green compared to her sisters. I think i have some pics of her ill try to post up later( gotta dig through a couple thousand pics).

    very interesting. Thats a pretty conclusive and controlled experiment then. Wonder if certain strains would respond better to growing upside down? If i lived in amsterdam, or even cali maybe, I would breed a plant that did well upside down, calling it "gravity" or something clever. And keep breeding the one that did the best, until I had a stable plant that produced effectively. Thanks again.

    im sure some strains would respond better. I think alot of it is that the main root ball is at the wettest part of the pot and the main stem seems to stay a little too wet. Im gonna try a few things to help it this year and I think im going to try one in the top and one in the bottom kinda like a ball of bud.
