Thanks to a whole new direction in growing tomatoes, your crop will be bigger, better tasting, healthier, and easier to grow than ever before.

It's the perfect gift for any gardener. Great for those who live in apartments or who have small backyards. Water and fertilize through the built-in top funnel; trim and harvest at chest height! Also for cukes, peppers, flowers. Just add your soil and plants. Topsy-Turvy¿ Planter makes it easy to grow tomatoes and vegetables because it eliminates the need for a backyard garden plot. | |

 Don't have a green thumb at all, ask my mom Jul 26, 2010
I am not sure why others appear to be having trouble. I have never been able to grow plants before. I guess I usually overwater my plants, so these are great because the extra water just drains away. I looked for tips online, and gave it a shot. One topsy turvy, one bag of miracle grow pre-mixed potting soil, and one small tomato plant. I had more tomatoes than I could eat last summer, and gave the rest to my neighbor before they rotted. Home grown tomatoes are the best! I will never eat store bought again. I am recycling the topsy turvy from last year, and bought 3 more to add for this year. I am growing big boys again, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and cucumbers. They're all doing great! I used a cheap plant hanger from walmart last year, counterbalanced with a bird feeder. This year I bought a sturdy 4 plant hanger. It's nice and tall, and mounted sturdily to my deck. I even branched out and set up a timer for my hose when I went on vacation. I have an automatic watering system set up for about $50 or less, so they all get watered twice a day whether or not I'm home. They're doing better than ever now that I set up that watering system. I live in southern maryland. Temperature here is regularly 90 or more during the summer. NO problems. Just last night, we had a nasty storm. Some branches fell down in our yard. All four planters and my watering system appear to still be intact. Next year I am going to double my crop, and add herbs to the tops of the planters. I love having a vegetable garden where I can just walk out onto my deck to pick fresh veggies every day. No effort, no maintenance required, self watering, just have to make sure the vines don't kill eachother trying to climb where they shouldn't, and remember to pick the fruits before they rot! Wish they were more attractive and wish I could find a way to move them inside and keep growing over the winter. But hey, going on 2 seasons of success is not bad at all for a brown thumb like mine!
 it works for what its worth Jul 23, 2010
So it is a little bit of a sloppy design but it works...i am not a fan of the white sponge cushion thing, and nor did i grow tomatoes in it...but it kept humidity and wathering was a breeze...
Does what it's supposed to do Jul 22, 2010
I bought this for my mom who loves home-grown tomatoes. The planter does what it's supposed to do. Plant obviously does not come with the product. Buy that separately.
 awful Jul 18, 2010
Didn't buy from amazon but its worthless. I got 1 tomato off it and I took great care of it. All my other plants that are in the ground are doing wonderful. Will never buy again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone!
 Not Worth It Jul 11, 2010
I was as excited as any of the positive reviewers when I first got my topsy turvy home. So I immediately put in a tomato plant, of course, which leads to my first caveat: it is really, really hard to plant one of these things without breaking the stem some way or another. Two days after my first attempt, I was back at the garden center picking out a new tomato plant. But I was even more careful the second time, and managed to get my second plant established. This, however, leads to the second caveat: even though I bought a teeny tiny baby seedling, the darn thing is curling around itself to grow upright. I must not be the only person to have this problem! My final caveat: if you might want to move the established plant at all, don't bother with this system. Once it's there, it's stuck there.
Later this afternoon, I will be heading out to my local garden center to get a patio pot for upright growing. I just hope it's not too late to repot this guy! The one good thing I'll say about my own experience: like many of the negative reviewers, I live in an arid climate (New Mexico), but unlike them, I did find that the root bag retained water well and stayed moist. If you water at dusk (to minimize evaporation) it really only takes a half gallon a day.
