Check out the new Topsy Turvy Upside Down Tomato Planter. Instead of planting your tomato plants in pots or in the ground, simply hang them up in the air, upside down, and eliminate the hassles of weeding, pests, hole digging, flimsy stakes and cages, and bending over to water, tend and harvest.

The Topsy Turvy allows you to stand upright and plant two tomato plants upside down from a grow bag hanging from your deck, patio, porch, balcony or even a tree. It's unique because you water and fertilize through the built in funnel on top of the bag and the tomato plants will begin to grow and curl upwards into unique patterns as they search out the sun. The only work you really need to do is hang a strong hook, add your plants and soil and water and fertilize as needed. It's the easiest way ever to grow tomatoes and in the end, you'll harvest big, ripe tomatoes nearly a month earlier than anyone else. It's also quite a conversation piece.

They are not very expensive at all, so pick up a few to hang around your yard, because you can also plant flowers, herbs, cucumbers, peppers and more as well.

OK last night I had making my own upside down tomatoe hangers figured out. Now, from what I here-you are talking about drilling the hole on the bottom of the pot-put plant there-sticking out- from bottom then fill the pot with good dirt and hang up? I made it much more difficult. Wouldn't this be dandy for green beans, peppers ect?. Now to figure out a way to place a water bottle with little hoses coming off of it(using excess sshower water, etc) one little hose going to each plant for each plant. I have always been stunted by lack of knowledge in like what materials to use,etc. I have two new ideas but need a man, or woman to help me put materials together. I have designed tons of things that are in use now. I had these things researched-there is nothing like them-but cost money-more than I have or can do without.

We tried the Topsy Turvy Upside down planters last year but were never successful in growing tomatoes. I think watering was the problem. We tested the soil every couple of days and never did they seem to need water so we weren't ever sure when to water or how much to water and the just never grew. We used potting soil and maybe this was the problem. Has anyone had this problem and if so what did you to do resolve it?

I love this idea. I just got my topsy turvy, but I can\'t figure out how to hang it. Is there a stand out there strong enough to hold it once the tomatoes start coming in? I put it on a shepherd\'s hook, but I can tell it\'s not going to hold for long.

We have planted an upside down tomatoe this year as a hoot, and so far we note that the plant wants to grow up. I am assuming (you know about that word) that once the fruit begins to set and get bigger, it will weigh the vines down, but having never done this I figured someone as and can give me the right dope. Your help is appreciated.

I had great success with my topsy turvy last year- this year- it has been three days, and the leaves are turning black and crisping up and dying- I don't understand- they are dying from the bucket end down to the tip- the first 3 layers of leaves are gone- I did use that dirt that has fertilizer in it- I am wondering if it is burning hte plants- it is obvious by the way they are dying that it is being sucked in by the roots- any ideas?

I have 8 topsy turvys planted this year with 4 of tomatos 2 with cucumbers 1 with bellpepers and 1 with strawberrys...I allso found watering them was a problem so with a small $12 kit from HD I setup a drip system that works great.

HELP! I am having a real dilemma with watering with my TT. We have fantastic vines and leaves and is beginning to take on little shop of horrors look BUT I am getting conflicting advice about watering. Some say every day with a trickle, some say 1 a week saturated, some say 3 to 4 x a week. Also, some say water in the evenings and some say don't. Can anyone give me watering advice for the TT? I have 2 beefsteak and a pink russian. Thanks....The little buds are starting but I fear I'm going to lose it all b/c some leaves are yellowing.

Have fruit on vine which is doing well, but leaves seem to be wilting a bit. I water daily as recommended in instructions which came with TT. Any help?

I tried the upside down tomato planter (purchased online). I had a problem with mine. My tomato plant still wanted to grow upwards.
The stalk turned and it grew up. had to end up staking it. It didn't grow down like they're showing on the commercials. Did I do something wrong? You can email me at to let me know. I'm wanting to try it again this year before the growing season.

They are supposed to grow up until the fruit weighs them down. This is normal. I just planted mine today: 1 Roma, 1 burpless cucumber, and 1 heirloom yellow pear. I hope this works in the location I selected. It will be great!

This will be my first time trying the TT. I plan to do cucumbers from seed which I am planting indoors today. Any tips, advice - whatever will be appreciated. Some specific questions: How high does the TT have to hang to work best? Do I plant one plant in there or a couple (it's the single unit)? Thanks!

ordered two from QVC and they were a bust... did exactly as instruction said...watered often and fed tomato food...live in Ohio and in the summer had to water almost every day....the plant grew to the ground and got plenty of small tomatoes (not big enough for a sandwich though) but they never turned red and they were in the sun 80% of the day! I got a shepherds hook and tied it to our deck... it got really heavy and it was all the hook could do to hold it. I put Big boy tomatoes in it and they were very, very disappointing...spent a lot of time babying them for nothing!!! I'll plant in the ground this year....

This is the first time I've tried. They\'re about 1-1/2 mo. & flowers are forming but the plant itself is not as big as represented in the TT photos. I\'ve noticed some yellowing of the leaves and wondered if anyone has any ideas on why this is happening. Otherwise, I love the concept...clean, no pests, & easy to reach on my patio. I have a second TT containing cherry tomatoes and peppers. So far, no yellowing leaves. How often is everyone else watering? I've been trying to keep it up every 2 days and have just refertilized. All comments appreciated!

I have 3 tomato plants in TT and one in the ground. The one in the ground is about twice the size of the identical plant in the TT. These are cherry tomatoes and the one in the TT is doing okay, just a lot smaller.
The larger tomato varieties I put in the TT are not doing well at all. They grew great for the first month or so and now look horrible! They are wilted all the time and the fruit has big brown spots at the end (I'm assuming black end rot, but the spots don't turn black). They have also stopped growing. Any advice? Next year I will put all of them in the ground!
