By Christine Pinkston

The Topsy Turvy Tomato Planter is a revolutionary way to grow a vegetable garden but is it right for you?

Lets start with why it works. The topsy turvy tomato planter can be used for most any vegetable that you would like to grow. Because of the design where the plants are upside down it is said that the nutrients will go down into the vegetables, making them larger and more abundant, but would you fair better with the topsy turvy as opposed to growing your vegetables the traditional way?

Are you limited in how many plants you can grow due to space restraints?

If you answered yes then this might be for you. The topsy turvy tomato planter really shines in it ability to let you grow a bigger garden then your yard could possibly hold.

Because it hangs off of the ground, you can hang it up basically anywhere whether that is in your yard, on your deck, or even in your house. Just be aware that if you hang it inside or on your porch that you will need to place a container underneath the planter when you water it to collect all of the excess water that it drains out.

Do you have somewhere that is strong to hang your topsy turvy tomato planter?

Hanging your topsy turvy just any old where will simply not do. The hanger when filled with a thriving plant, wet dirt, and the fruit of your labors can weigh up to 70 pounds. If it is not properly support you might have a problem before you get to enjoy your vegetables.

To ensure that you have the support switch out the hooks you get with the planter to a heavier duty one that can hold up to 80 pounds, or build a wooden frame to hold your planters.

If you have a good support system the Topsy Turvy Tomato Planter will save you a lot of time, space, and energy while allowing you to grow a plentiful crop of vegetables you might otherwise not have.
