Comments about Organic Tomato Success Kits:
Using two (2) Kits on the fourth (4th) floor, Outside Deck. The first one started July 25th & happy to see some nice results already. Three tomatoes on the Determinate plant & the (Indeterminate)is flowering and budding nicely.
After losing 14 Heirloom Tomato Plants grown in 15 Gal. Containers/with All Organic Help -still they Died...Problem may be the Very Close Freeway in Burbank, CA -only a half-football field away...Some experts feel the Carbon Monoxide is a big pollutant to these wonderful plants. So, hopefully with a New Way of Growing I may get lucky. I can not see how you get more than 2 Indeterminate Plants in one kit. Or, 1 Determinate & 1 Indeterminate. The self-watering system seems to be doing its job -even though it's late in the season. IF, these work out -would get 2 more and add some Cold Weather Plants for the coming Winter. After about 30 years (off and on) I've had great results on Ground Level- so, 4th Floor -Outside Deck is brand new to me.
A few years back I had 35 Plants going, mostly in the ground - but quite a few in Containers. One thing with these kits is I can't figure out how much water really is in the 4 gal. capacity holding area -must bend down with a Flashlight to see - otherwise you keep filling and of course it will overflow & will tell you it's full. Must be a better way than that. The second kit was started 9 days after the first one, due to Non-Shipment of One set of Casters (on the original shipment) -moving these around on a Deck or Patio is important. It is a NEAT KIT & I am pleased so far, hopefully that will continue and I'll make a Hero out of them.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Organic Tomato Success Kits:
The Organic Success Kit was easy to assemble and our tomato plants are thriving! It has only been 3 weeks, however, we went on a week long vacation during very hot weather and the plants did wonderfully! I'm glad I purchased the cage extensions because our plants are growing like crazy and we'll need them within another week. I would also suggest buying the wheels because they have come in handy when we need to move the planters, e.g. washing down the deck & placing it where the sunlight is best.
I HIGHLY recommend this product!

Comments about Organic Tomato Success Kits:
I received my second pair of tomato success kits last month. This time I purchased the organic version which I planted with low acid lemon boy tomatoes. In two weeks since I planted, my tomato plants have tripled in height and width. I do not know at this time if this is due to your organic soil that I received in the kits. My 2 older success kits provided me with tremendous tomato crops in the last 2 years. It has a regular garden supply container soil mix. This year I planted pole beans in the 2 units and all 4 units have the cage extensions installed. They are easy to move around with the casters on. This is important for a person in a wheel chair such as I am. I am planning to buy more this fall as I extend my wheel chair garden. Any problems I would have, would not be due to the quality of the garden supply products, but due to salt air from the ocean. A screen cloth is over part of the area that I use as a garden. I currently have my 4 success kits out in front of the house with no screen cloth as a test to see if the tomatoes and pole beans will do well.

Comments about Organic Tomato Success Kits:
For a self watering planter it seems that I have to water it about every day so I'm not sure why it is touted as self watering. But I like it because it seems that my tomato plants look great. This type of planter should be made for other types of plants, i.e. sold without a tomato cage.
Pros
- Easy to use
- Self-watering
- Successful
Cons
- Heavy
Best Uses
- Edible goodies
Comments about Organic Tomato Success Kits:
I have killed most plants that come anywhere near me. And yet, I have had 3 successful seasons with the tomato success kit. I don't know how Gardener's does it. It's magic. I have even bought this for an elderly relative who has mobility issues. We have the trolley which makes it higher off the ground so the pets don't use it for ... well ... you know ... so I wish it was a bit more attractive. However anything that let's me grow something I can actually eat will get no complaints from me. We've even had to get the extra cages because the plants get so big. I've used it in Massachusetts and Florida with the same great results. I highly recommend it for beginning gardeners, pet owners, mobility impaired, and black thumbs!!
