Hello and thanks for any help
My house is trying a new Hydroponics roof top Tomato system that base/pot starts over 3 feet high off the ground/roof. I was wondering if Tomatoes can be trained to grow back downward. I rather not have to try to make a support system that goes that high (with plant growth could then reach 10 feet+) and was wondering if they can train the younger tomato stalks to go downward to a support system like chicken wire or thin "clothesline" system to cling to.
If so, how big upward growth would be needed before u-turning or bending them back towards the ground? Is that even possible?
I hope I’ve made myself clear on what we are hoping for.
Thanks for any help.
