Step 7Hang It All!
Congratulations, you've got yourself one fine looking inverted tomato planter!
I like to transfer the ID tags from the nursery planters to the new pot so that I can remember what's in each pot (at this point I make 3 or 4 of these a year -- each with different varieties -- so this is very helpful).
Once you've got the planter hung up on a hook, you need to water it. The first time you water it, you need to saturate the soil because the plants from the nursery have become dried out. Water the plant until water starts streaming out of the bottom.
Future waterings don't need to be so heavy. If the plant is in direct afternoon sun, a cup or two each day will do the job nicely.
