Summary: Just be careful where you put it!
Comment: Our tomato growing season in FL is almost over, and now is the time to rate this...
All in all, it performed pretty well, but some things you need to be aware of...
1) Make sure you hang it from something VERY sturdy. When filled with dirt and water, the thing must weigh 50 lbs! The first time I hung it the trellis I hung it from broke, any my poor little tomato plant got squished beyond recognition.
2) It can be difficult to hang because of the weight. I am a reasonably healthy, reasonably young 40 something male, and I struggled to get it hung because of that.
3) I can see the advantage of the $60 upside down planter because it is on a stand which makes it easier to reach and water. Personally, I would never pay that much and I am undecided if I would buy another one of these. It's a great conversation starter, but it's practicality is lacking.

Summary: Topsy Turvey - package
Comment: I ordered the Topsy Turvey from Mobile Mart - it was delivered very fast, but it came in a plain box - not the blue package box as shown on the screen. I received the Topsy Turvey (all parts included) and instructions - but I would have liked the pictured box also - I wanted to give this as a gift.

Summary: WHO SAYS YOU CAN'T FOOL MOTHER NATURE?
Comment: I thought that this would just be a fun conversation starter when people visited my garden - it is so much more! This product far exceeds the description in the ad.
The inverse orientation seems to encourage hearty plants - super strong stems requiring no staking - so many tomatoes that I'll be giving them away by the bushel - BEST of all the bugs don't seem to notice it is even there (and the rabbits can't reach it). After the severe rains this past Spring the whole rest of my garden is bogged down with mold, mildew and more insects than I have ever seen but the hanging tomato garden is thriving and pest free. The only access a crawly creature would have would be the wire that it hangs from (a much more clever design than the expensive 'Upside-down Tomato Garden' ($69.97) that is in actual contact with the ground and besides, that one has to be put together).
Make sure that your plant 'starts' are a good five or six inches tall before they go into the planter and be consistent with the water (about a gallon each day) tomatoes are heavy drinkers.
Have fun watching your whacky garden grow!

Seeing is believing. Upside down tomato plants? That's the Topsy Turvey. The 3-Ply UV-resistant gro-bag holds enough potting mix for incredibly dense root systems. The hanging system is made of stainless steel aviation cable and a 360 degree swivel attachment is included.
