Pretty bad sound here buddy. Is it possible to plant from seed? (Ireland)

The only time he may have had the thing full of soil is when it was hanging. If you fill it full with soil while trying to hold it, its going to get heavy fast. Put your hanger up first, put the plant in, hang it and then fill with soil. This will make your life much easyer and keep you from crushing your plant.

I bought two of these and two tomato plants. I got a total of 6 tomatoes. I don't know what I did wrong, but I was sadly disappointed that my plants did not fill out at all or look nearly as lush as what you see on t.v. I used a good potting soil, and watered every other day, but they never got full; just one spindly stalk on each. What was it they said.....don't mess with mother nature?! Gosh darn, and I love tomatoes too!!!!!!!!!

hey gardeners.. I am a new vegetable grower myself .. i have a great little tip for u guys . my tomatoe plants got long really fast..... theyl get so long theyll touch the ground if there not realy high up... and i had a tomatoe plant in the side and it flopped over from the weight... so i gently tied them to that chains on the top... all topsy tuirvys have the same 3 chain design.. u can just gently make a loop around the thickest stalk of the plant. and tie it up..keep it a loose knot

Don't bother with this. You'll be watering 2 or 3 times a day, so don't plan on going anywhere for the weekend. It'll only last 1 season. Then you'll need to find a way to hold the thing up, and when it's wet it weighs 50 pounds. If you insist that you're going to try it, save yourself some money, and make one using a 5 gallon plastic bucket. Just cut a hole in the bottom, get a sponge, and you're good to go. I don't recommend it, though. Just grow things as nature intended.

@naughtyglamz Awesome! Compared to what I am growing in the ground, the TopsyTurvy is amazing! Good luck!
i have the big one...with three holes. they are growing up and not downwards. should i take the soil out and point them downwards. they have already doubled in a week. i would appreciate a response.

As they continue to get bigger, gravity will bring them back down on their own. You should not try to point them in a different direction.
