High novelty value, and fewer pests, and might be possible to grow some things in places where you might not otherwise have space, but not the easiest way to grow.

Review: It finally got to me - that over-and-over-again TV ad for the Topsy-Turvy Planter, that goofy looking bag with a giant crop of healthy, ripe, red tomatoes growing OUT THE BOTTOM! I don't know about you, but I have never bought anything from one of those ...

Pros: None

Cons: Container if too heavy when filled. tomatoes do not grow

The Bottom Line: I would not reccommend this product. No Way

The Bottom Line: I would not recommend ths to anyone.  Especially first time gardeners.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Doesn't work, waste of money and time

Review: I've grown huge tomato plants in whiskey barrels for years.  I now have lots of deer and dogs so tried these turveys.  Had to rig up a pulley system off the deck so that I could trim and harvest, yet get them up away from the...

Pros: there are none

Cons: IT IS A CON

Review: DO NOT BUY.  I bought 2 of these for my dad for father's day and he planted them this year.  The plants collapsed to the floor from rot around the stem at the bottom of the bag a week apart from each other.  Total waste of time and...
