I'm a botanic, and this position is very bad for the plant, tomatoes plant tend to grow upwards to get sun light, and look at the tiny space where the earth is put, the plant's root cant attach itself very well to it, and has no space for it to grow and expand, so if the root dont grow, the plant dies by lack of nutrition...
My neighbor has two of these. My mother and I plant at least one tomato plant a year... the old fashioned way. My neighbor's tomatoes look horrible. He's hardly gotten any worth eating, and his plants are half withered and dead. Which isn't aided by the fact that he put them out around mid April (the ad says you can put them out earlier) and they wound up dealing with several frosts and a freeze. And he didn't get any tomatoes before we did. 30lbs my butt. Our's are doing great though.
No, not for me! Mine looked nothing like this. I got a total of 6 tomatoes on two separate plants and they didn't even get this full. Yes, I used good potting soil meant for growing vegetables and gave them a good watering every other day and waited for my tomatoes....."sob" what a disappointment.
oh ya you can make this out of a regular hanging pot that has a hole in the bottom it saves money and looks less retarded

Why don't you just go to the store and buy tomatoes?

You really, really need to water the container every day if you have any hope of making this method work.

Ermm, tomato plants go few meters in height. I should know, I have them.
So, why making things easier when we could further complicate them right?
