real quick:
take old pantie hose w/ toe cut out and place over the root ball until the whole thing is at the base of the stalk.
next, stretch hose over entire plant till it's in a "tube".
Follow direction on TRD, make sure you put cuts 180 deg out from each other.
Hang planter from something solid and undo the chain closest to you. It should now hang even with the front part of the top open so you can drop the plant it.
Drop plant in, fish the hose through the bottom hole.
Depth of plant depends if you're gonna put anything on top. Spave TRD about an inch or so from root ball. You can do this before you drop it in or after.
Fill with dirt to bottom of root ball. I like to water while I'm doing it to make sure the dirt settles.
Place herb in top and fill the rest of the way BUT ONLY TO ABOUT 1" or more FROM THE CHAIN HOLES.
The more room you leave up top, the easier it is to water. Just fill the pot till it comes out the holes, repeat until you get a steady flow out of the bottom hole. Use miricle grow moister control potting soil. Feed Miricle grow liquid once a week.
You'll need to water twice a day if you plant both ends; once if just the bottom.
You'll need to water everyday. You can miss a day ( try not to) BUT DON'T MISS TWO !
You might not have to water as much up there, but it's twice a day if both ends planted and it's hot out down here.
The pic are of a "patio tomato" plant. They did well. You can use full size plants, but it slows do production rate about two weeks.
"Bonnie" plants from Home Depot or Wal mart are nice plants, but pricey.
Cherry tomatos are very productive in these as well.
Lemme know if you have any questions. I'll have pics up when I get a box that works.
Two "dimples" from a plastic gallon milk jug should work good too for TRD's.
That's the next move. I didn't have any here; all I had was the biodegradable ones.
