topsy turvy upside-down tomato planter

Published Mar. 1, 2009

Topsy-Turvy Planter makes it easy to grow tomatoes and vegetables because it eliminates the need for a backyard garden plot, stakes or cages, weeding, soil prep, hole digging, cut worms and in-ground insects! Saves your back and knees too! Hang it from a hook on a deck or balcony and you’ll work standing up. 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. FLOWERS thrive in TOPSY TURVY, too! And talk about an interesting way to grow them! Flowers grown in TOPSY will "curl" upward seeking the sun, creating gorgeous "upside down umbrella-like sprays" of flowers. Flowers grown this way look "interestingly different" (almost like a new variety of plant). 

 

ANYONE TRIED THIS???  Just curious I'm thinking about getting a couple...

G'Evenin', Maysmom. I've never tried one but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

It's really a disguised pot grower.

I only need something to grow cukes...the deer ate all my veggies last year and I was pessed off!!! First they wreck my car and then eat my food. I used to hate hunting season now I dont care if you blow every last one to pieces. Eating my food I had a hard time growing. I had to pay dem illegal aliens good money to raise my veggies. That is hard work to me.

I bought one at Target last week. It is still sitting in my laundry room. I hope it works!

I imagine it would work pretty well, but it might be kinda heavy. Better have something strong to hook it to.

I'm going to try this! Hope it does well! I love 'maters!

Yes we tried this last year it worked great.

we planted an upside down garden last year...using plastic buckets, same principle...worked well, you have to water them frequently, and be sure to plant your veggies extra deep, so they don't get too heavy...we planted cukes, but they have to be harvested when they are small and lightweight.

I think tmedlin grew some veggies in them last year. I don't know how well they worked, though.

I'm intrigued.....

Anyone have these things locally?
