Exclusive | Our Deluxe Revolution® Planter Turns Tomato Growing on Its Head
Upside-down growing is a fun way to garden that is also easy for tomato-lovers of all abilities. Hanging tomato plants don't need staking or tying. There's no weeding, and less chance of soil-borne diseases. Since the fruit doesn't touch the ground, it has fewer blemishes. And you can hang your upside down tomato planter anywhere that gets plenty of sun.
Hanging planters are prone to drying out, but our new Deluxe Revolution® Planter lets you garden without worry, thanks to a three-part watering system. Capillary strips carry water from the one-gallon reservoir to plant roots. A layer of plastic, sandwiched between natural coir Aquasav™ fibers, prevents rapid drying out. Even if you have a regular in-ground garden, we think you'll find that this revolutionary growing system is a fun way to get a picture-perfect harvest of delicious, garden-fresh tomatoes.

Best Uses
Comments about Deluxe Revolution® Planter:
The planting bags worked just fine, but the felt strips for watering the plants failed within the first week. Replacement with enclosed felt strips, advised in the directions, did not remedy the problem.I finally poked holes in the plastic water dishes and the plants immediately began to grow and thrive.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Deluxe Revolution® Planter:
I have grown tomatoes for 25 years with great success. This is the first product that didn't perform. My tomato I purchased died within days. The watering system was not easly controlled. I constantly had water dripping out the bottom of the planter. I now am using it as a ground planter.

Comments about Deluxe Revolution® Planter:
This is much more attractive than the green upside down things that I've used for years.I hung the planter yesterday.There was some difficulty inserting the plant, but got both through.I only plant cherry or grape tomatoes in the hanging planter.Larger tomatoes would be too heavy and drag on the ground.I placed 2 plants in the planter as I did with the green planters.
