Topsy Turvy® Planters
I assume someone has used this already for growing tomato plants? But has anyone planted parsley or mint in one of these? And, if so, how did it do?
Since I purchased two of them, think I'll use one for cherry tomatoes and one for Italian flat parsley and some mint, since his instructions say you can plant two tomato plants in one Topsy Turvy then I should be able to plant both the parsley and mint together in one of these things.
Anyone use these before? And any tips that he doesn't give that will help?
Also was wondering if anyone has planted green peppers in one of these? And how did they do?
Since blood meal kept the deer from munching on my tomato plants and other veggies last year, I think I will pour blood meal at the top of the dirt on these and hope (fingers crossed) that it works. Guess I could sprinkle cayenne pepper on the veggies, too, to discourage Mr. and Mrs. Deer.
