Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

This is my second year with this planter. I did EXACTLY as instructed. I even bought the $150.00 plus holder that is now being used as a bird feeder. Everything was going great for about 3 weeks and then I noticed that the planter was no longer drinking the water. The soil was dry because I guess the water straps "got clogged." Again, I did everything that was asked of me and my beautiful healthy plants died. It was another year without tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The Revolution Planter is a great addition to my garden. The hanging design frees up floor space on my deck and keeps my tomatoes out of reach of "critters".

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I used it for tomatos and zucchini. Got a good number of tomato's and two zuke's. The zuke's were just a test. The problem with this is the watering system. You need to manually water the plants and forget about the automatic capillary part as they get algaefied and become useless. Tomato's need a lot of water and nutrients.Also the fabric only lasted one year as it rotted at the top and tore very easily when I dismantled it. Not sure if they sell just the fabric or not.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The planter worked well, even the watering system which I had been concerned about from reading other reviews. The tomato plant looked great on my patio. Two things prevent me from giving a 5-star rating 1) moisture stick was useless and 2) tomatoes were good bit a bit on the small side. I will try to alleviate that by using a heartier variety instead of heirloom. All in all the upside down tomato plant was a fun experiment and I will try it again next summer.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

this was really cool. I have had issues with worms and rot when trying to plant tomato in ground but finally had success with this product.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Midway thru the second season, the fabric started rotting at the top. I had removed the dirt over the winter, so it wasn't from that. I fed and watered the tomato plant reguraly and two or three small tomatoes were the result. I bought one ofr my daughter and her's is rotting too. Next year, I'm going to cut a holein a gal bucket and use it. At least it will last longer and the watering system never worked right, so I'll continue to hand wate. Save your money with this product.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

mAYBE IT WAS THE WET WEATHER IN THE NORTHEAST BUT THE HARVEST STUNK. I'LL TRY IT ONE MORE YEAR.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I was going to use these in my greenhouse for tomatoes, I wanted to have tomatoes year round. What I didn't realize is how heavy they are when filled, so I am still trying to figure out the safest ways to hang them in my greenhouse (and still have room). I was thrilled to realize that these are self-watering which is excellent for me! Easy to assemble and quality workmanship.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

the watering system didn't work for me, either. I will try it again next year with holes drilled in reservoir. Only one of 4 happened to not dry out. I don't know what I did differently with that one. they all became a giant white fly farm, and I've never had that problem before.

the only reason I'm trying it again is because they were a big investment, and I don't want to waste it.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

followed the instructions for planting, scheduled replacement of watering strips and fertilizing...but didn't produce the fruit expected. Picked the tomatoes green and let ripen in house. If the bag contained a Velcro strip along its entire side then planting would be much easier!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The water container and the felt strips got slimy and did not distribute the water well despite been cleaned weekly. The plants needed watering nearly every day to avoid blossom end rot. The watering indicator was not useful. I would not buy again. A cover of over the top to prevent evaporation would be very helpful. Not sure the bags will stand another year - while the old version plantars were reliably reusable.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

These are attractive planters that should last more than one season. Once planted, my tomatoes required very little throughout the season. I found the water sensors to be of little use. Instead, I went by the moisture in the soil at the opening on the bottom.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Used this product for tomatos and peppers. the peppers were beautiful but had trouble with the former. But it was becausee of the blight we experienced this summer, not the product.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The strips ttht are used to keep the dirt wet gets very slimy after 3 weeks and stops working. It only comes with one. the pool that forms becoms a breeding ground for mosquotos.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I found this product was alittle hard to handle when you first hung it up and had to put the water container in- I would suggest having two people to do this.
I had to reinforce the shephard's hook, that I had it on, the container is very heavy when it is filled up with dirt and water in the container.- needs
a good strong support hanger!!!!

I had problems with the felt filter, I had alot of Algea growing on it, I did have to change it a few times, because I had problems with the dirt drying out. The felt was in the water, and was wet along the sides, but underneath the cntainer, it was dry, not sure what was causing this to happened, but ended up,watering the old fashion way, with the watering container, and watering every day. I'm thinking next year, making small holes in the water container,so that the water can slowly seep into the dirt, instead of having to deal with the felt filter. The indicator stick, worked for a few weeks, but then stayed white, took it apart a few times, thought some dirt got stuck on it, but in a few days, showed white again, so I ended up sticking my finger in the soil, to see how moist the soil was, won't be using the indicator stick next year.
Otherwise, the tomatoe plant did grow, and produces some tomatoes, but this year, we had alot of rain, and not enough warm sunny weather, so things did not grow to well.

I will try again next year, but will try putting a few small holes in the water container, and forget about the indicator stick.

Let's just wait and see how things go next year.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I grew cherry tomatoes in this hanger this past season and had over 350 tomatoes from 1 plant!! The farmers said it was a bad year for tomatoes!! I just ordered 4 more for next year. I may try growing zucchini this way next year. Great product!!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Greatest invention since the wheel. Have totally quit in-ground planting.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I tried both the topsy-turvy and the revolution planters this year to see which worked better. With same soil, same location and same plants, the topsy turvy turned out larger plants and more tomatoes. On the revolution planter, the fabric container seemed to dry soil out faster. I did not find the moisture indicator to be accurate. The wicking watering system did not keep the soil adequately moist. I ended up drilling small holes in the water reservoir so water would trickle into the soil. With both planters it was tough to keep the soil moist enough to keep plants hydrated. This is just the nature of the beast and I much prefer planting tomotoes in a large pot. Had to water daily. Seems like a lot of work for the results.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Bought two of these for tomato plants. Directions were clear and it was easy to set up.
The watering system failed just a month after we set up the planters. We even replaced the wicking strips as directed, but finally gave up, pulled the bowls out and watered the soil directly. The container mix did not hold moisture well and our plants looked wilted most of the time. We live in a hot, windy area so a sheltered patio might have a different result.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I was disappointed with this product. Instructions were confusing. The hanging planter is heavy once everything is put in. Not a good crop of tomatoes at all. I don't think the strips were working properly. I got some kind of white mildew around the buttom of the container. Don't know if I'll try this next year, especially since you need to buy the replacement. I can use it as a plant hanger since the stand is sturdy enough to hold planters. I would not recommend.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I've had problems with horn worms in the past. This year NONE. Not having to pick them off every day more than offsets doing manual daily watering. Discovered that the density of the dirt around the root ball must be the same as the new dirt added to the bag, in order for the water to be equally absorbed thru out. Next year I'm going to grow plants from seeds using your dirt.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I bought this for my Mother-in-law for Mother's Day, as she enjoys gardening and is very limited in space. I didn't realize she'd bought a simiilar item, so I was able to compare them myself. Gardener's was sturdier and had the self-watering feature (though she removed the dish, saying it kept the plant saturated). Since the one she bought was also brand new, we'll be able to see which model holds up to the test of time. In the meantime, I may get a couple for myself for next year.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Too sophisticated for an average gardener. I was extremely disappointed and will try to get a refund. All three capillary strips were used up before the fruit was even set on the vine. I followed all the directions to the letter and got flowers that fell off the vine, tiny misshapen fruit, wilted plants even though there was water in the bladder, the water indicator was useless since it said it was dry when it fact the soil was wet...???
The tomatoes I planted in the traditional way in (my garden in the soil)are fantastic. And I see other gardens with far less expensive upside-down planters than this product with great results. AND I CAN'T USE IT A SECOND SEASON WITHOUT BUYING ALL NEW SUPPLIES!!! Whack!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I purchased six of these this past Winter, planted them this Spring and have been using them this Summer. I'm to the point where I've decided I really wouldn't recommend them to anyone. The self-watering feature would be helpful, if only it worked well. It has been a constant struggle maintaining a balance between too wet and too dry. The past few weeks they have gotten to the point where I've only had to check them once per day but prior to that I was checking them twice per day, morning and evening. I've had two of my plants snap off during storms, while all of my plants on the ground were fine. Finally, tomato plants are just not adapted well to growing upside down. Next year, I will simply plant my tomatoes in the ground, and work with nature, rather than trying to "improve" upon nature (and in reality work against it).

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I found the instructions too detailed and the set up was messy. I planted a competitors upside down planter as well and the tomatoe plant did much better than the one in the revolution planter!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Everything else except how much to water was described with instructions. The water meter was not correct. It would show that it needed water when the dirt was very wet. I plan to try it again next year.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I think this planter would have been fine, if I was a seasoned gardener. However, I am not.
I found the directions not clear enough(I am a gardening moron). First, I didn't get that I had to wet the dirt,so I had to take it out and start over. Then, I wet the dirt too much. The directions don't say how much water until after that part of the directions, so I flooded the dirt with twice the water it needed.
I thought this would be a neat thing to have at my art studio; to pluck a tomato at lunch. However, it leaked all over the place, and made a mess after I left for the day. I am also in and out of my shop, so I was looking forward to not having to deal with constant watering,(My plants have to be independant(LOL))This is not the case, you do have to water on a regular basis. I would recommend people use it strictly outdoors, where it can leak, and also get watered with the rain as well. I also made the mistake of putting a full grown plant in this, so I really butchered my plants roots, so it never recovered(RIP). It can only have a seedling.
I have not given up on this gardening experiment. I will try it again next year. I only wrote this review, so others could benefit from my lack of gardening ability (AKA I am a Killer of Plants). I did find the product to be of good quality, and the light weight dirt is really needed, don't skimp on this when you buy it. Can you make it more attractive?
- Happy Gardening!!
KILLER

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I really like this product and I look forward to juicy tomatoes. The only drawback is that it all can't be reused a second season.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The concept was good and seems to work. The plants did not grow very large as it appeared they do get enough water through the wicks and unless we watered without the holding tubs in place, the roots of the plants suffered. All the veggies we got were way smaller than those grown in the ground.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

These revolutionary planters are great. They basically take care of themselves. They save space in the garden and look very attractive on a patio. The stand that you can get to go with them is sturdy and very attractive. The plants in them do so well and stay greener and produce more flowers or vegetables than when they are in a ground pot.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The water wicking strips to moisturize the soil were replaced and still didn't keep the plant supplied with adequate water.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I'm wondering how accurate the moisture indicater is. Is a better one available ?

We have a lot of large fir trees. Have made a cone shapped cover that keeps the fir needles and
tree polan out of the water tray. Something like
this may be useful if others have a similar problem.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I tried three times to make this work! 1st I used your dirt and my 4" seedlings. they died. Next I used your dirt and bought 2 small tomato plants...they died. Then I used your dirt and 2- 8"tomato plants...they died. The top watering system seems to work, but something went wrong. I have one of your planteds that waters from the bottom....I have beautiful tomatoes growing. ??

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The planter is great to assemble and set up and the tomato plant is doing well. I am having repeated trouble with the reservoir. I have to re-water the planter itself before filling the reservoir. Also, The moisture indicator doesn't seem to indicate moisture any longer. (3 weeks old)

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We have this hanging off the pergola over our deck just outside the kitchen door. Tomatoes at hand!! Love it!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

While it was tricky getting the seedling in the planter, I still like the product. It is far better than the flimsy ones sold on TV.
I did, however, abandon the strips used for slow watering and instead poked four smallish holes in the water bowl on top. Worked better that way. I live in an apartment and tried this product with Better Boy tomatoes. Wish I had bought more. I will next year.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I've tried that other more well known planter that you see in the TV commercials all the time. I will admit that that planter is good. Folks, the Revolution Planter is far superior. I especially like the self watering function of this planter. That other planter you have to water every day and after a years use it starts to fall apart. I do not think my Revolution Planters will fall apart anytime soon. Early next year I plan on ordering several more. I have also recommended this product to several of my friends.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I carefully read through all the reviews on this site, bought the recommended soil mix and patio tomato plants and carefully followed the instructions. At first all was well, and then my plants started to wither. I initially thought they had some sort of disease. No, they were just dry--- the self watering strips failed to wick water from the full plastic tub. I removed the plastic tubs and watered daily, but I guess it was too late. One plant is dead and the other produced a few fruit. This, combined with the birds delighting in such easy pickings from the hanging tomatoes, has resulted in not one single tomato for harvest this year. I did recommend this product to a friend back when I first got it, but I certainly cannot recommend it now.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We have had a great deal of satisfaction watching these plants grow and produce fruit in such a short period of time. We positioned the Revolution Planter on the sunny side of the house using a bracket next to a window. We have always had lots of green tomatoes in August because of the excess amount of shade in our yard due to maturing trees. Placing the baskets by the window gives easy access for watering, keeps pesky creatures away and allows for a great deal of sun. If sun doesn't come around to your plants, bring your plants to the sun! We've had some dreary days this summer and even with that, we have harvested some red tomatoes already! Lots of Fun!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Bought two of these in 2008. The capillary system stopped working in July. This year they recommend changing capillary strip monthly and give you three strips. I live in an area where my tomato season is 6 months, requiring me to buy more. My strips stay wet, water stays in retainer and doesn't go to plants. My tomato plants die once warm weather sets in. The strips are good for an average of two weeks not a month. They do not pay for themselves with the yield of tomatoes that I get.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

watering system is inadequate

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I really like the watering indicator. That is really important here in Phoenix where the humidity gets down into the single digits and the temperature doesn't get below 90 at night.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I usually "garden" in pots as I have a large deck and little dirt. I have planted tomato and green peppers in the planters and, although they got a late start, each plant is flourishing. No staking necessary and built-in watering system seems to be working very well. Easy maintenance for a very amateur gardener.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I bought the Revolution planter on a lark. Am I glad I did! I chose a Park's Whopper seedling since they have always been reliable producers in my garden. Plus I had planted two others in the garden, so I was able to do a comparison. The seedlings were put into the garden two weeks before the Revolution planter. Right now, there are at least a dozen on the vine in the planter and I have already begun harvesting. Those in the ground have about half as many and are still about two weeks from being harvested! I am only sorry I didn't purchase more of them. I intend to get more next spring and try some of the heirlooms or other tomatoes that typically have lower yields in my Maryland garden (like San Marzano Redorta, Costoluto Fiorentino and Cherokee Purple. For now, though, I am perfectly happy with the single planter I own.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The instructions for the Gardner's Revolution Planter indicated the planter would be heavy. That was an understatement. We had to purchase a 10 foot post and cement it 2 feet into the ground to hang the planter. (We hung 2 planters) The tomato plants are growing but they are growing up, not hanging down. I have a few buds. I'm wondering how the limbs will support heavy tomatoes. Plants that I planted in the ground already have small tomatoes growing.
The watering system does not work effectively. You need to be tending the planters daily or they dry out. Time will tell if I get tomatoes and if this works or if I will use these again next year.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I purchased this for my parents because they have problems growing vegetables due to deer, rabbits, and other animals that share their garden. They have missed the unrivaled flavor of home grown tomatoes, so I purchased two of these as a gift. My Dad followed the instructions to a tee and is getting great results. Friends of their purchased similar products (from TV ads) and theirs are flimsy and unattractive. As always, the products that Gardener's Supply carries are of highest quality and durability,[...]I highly recommend the product and the company!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

seems to use A LOT of water, I believe a cover over the top would reduce evaporation and allow water to be used by plant

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The water indicator (water gauge) is useless. Very hard to read, if it works at all(never).I am very dissapointed in this product.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I thought that the item was very well made. The well to hold the water was a bit clumsy. Not to many places to hang because after the plant starts to hang down. I have a couple of small tomatoes, and wonder if the price I paid was all worth it. Time will tell.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The veggies look great BUT I have to water through the fabric. They self watering pan doesn't seem to keep them watered.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

great space saver...cannot wait to see the yield of heirlooms...

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Would not mind my money back for fertilizer, soil and hanger

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The product has fulfilled all my wishes and did exactly what was described. I already have tomatoes set. I followed the easy instructions and they worked!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Works great, only had to add small holes in watering bowl. As it is very hot here in north carolina. birds drink from it too. So small holes help a lot.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I really like the product..........easy to use, much more attractive than other models I have seen. I have tomatoes growing in this hanging gadget, other tomatoes in the ground. The hanging ones are still very tiny - about 1/10 the size of the ones in the ground - but they do have some tomatoes on them, which the ones in the ground do not. But! This has been about the worst gardening year I have seen (over 40 years of gardening!) Way too wet in Connecticut! So hard to rate the product - I can only say it's a great example of the concept, very well made, easy to use, and attractive. Time will tell about its usefulness, I don't think this is a fair year to judge!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

These hanging planters are so much easier than staking unwieldy tomato plants in the ground. Next year I intend to buy another set and try eggplants, as well.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have tomatoes growing in three of these planters. So far...so good

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I use this product to grow tomatoes and green peppers. It is especially well-suited for cherry tomatoes. If you use the self-watering soil in it, the heavy weight is eliminated when watered.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The plants are doing well, but these planters so very, very heavy. Difficult to hang because of the weight and how far from the ground they need to hang. I had to buy a metal arbor as the shepherd's hooks did not work.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Easy to use and light weight

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Planted a cherry tomato plant in mine, growing GREAT! Other plants in my regular garden not doing as well, as weather has been cool and wet, yet this planter delivers the right amount of water all the time. Be sure to add water daily though. Friends with similar design planters not having the same success, planters are not as sturdy. I will definately order more and use it yearly! Thanks

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have two of the revolution planters. I have planted a tomato plant in one and a cucumber plant in the other. I think the watering system is great in that I can fill it and be away for a few days without worrying about my plants drying up. I found it a little difficult to set up insofar as filling with planting soil and actually inserting the plant - probably because I was doing it alone. All in all, I think it's a great planter and so far my plants are doing well in it.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

This planter works and looks great! I even built a "swing set" rack to hold four of them.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

U have a great harvest coming up. I have four Revolution planters with different varieties of tomatoes. I found that mosquitoes were breeding on the top water reservoir so I took them all off and proceeded to water three times daily and the tomatoes are healthy and the plants seem happy. It seems to work as well as the capillaries which sometimes get clogged by the root system.
I think this is a great product but sometimes one needs to improvise a little. My only problem is that Opossoms seem to enjoy knocking down the green tomatoes. Any advice?

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

unless the weather played a big part, my tomatoes did nothing...did not grow, so after 5 weeks took apart and planted in regular pots...maybe try again next year....

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We'll see if we get tomatoes, so far so good. It's sturdier than the TV brand. This one is cloth and looks pretty cool on the patio under the deck. We don't have room for a garden now, so this works very well,,,just waiting for my BLT.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

These are great hanging baskets for the homeowners to enjoy, but the only draw back that I ran across was to fill the basket with soil and hold the tomato plant in was a bit difficult. Other than that Great!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Our tomatoes plants have never looked so happy as in the Gardner's Revolution Planter. They always have just the right amount of water.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

you need change the instructions,to show that only one Capillary should be use at a time, and what are the signs on when to make the change.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I thought it was a tad difficult putting tomatoes in the rather small opening, I had to make it hole a little bigger, but then again I ordered my tomatoes from an online store and they ship larger plants! Once in, they started to grow quickly and now I am admiring all my future tomatoes!

I tried (and still use) "topsy turvy" upside down planters as well, but yours are so much more professional looking. I recommend using bush or container tomatoes in the upside down planters as they seem to work better.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Garden upside down planter. Weedless planter, self watering which is great. Had a little problem actually getting the plant into the small slit without too much disturbance to the plant itself but from then on it was well worth the trouble.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Much better than the "other" brands!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have arthritis and found it very difficult to put together and very heavy once all together. I was expecting something smaller and lighter. Through no fault of yours I only got to use it last month because of the colder weather we experienced. So far the plant is flourishing, I hope to get tomatoes next month. Will let you know.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We have three tomato plants in the ground and none of them are growing as fast as the one in the Revolution Planter. We absolutely love it.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We decided to try growing some tomatos ourselves this year and want to try and bring the plants in to our sunroom to contue grouwing during the winter. This seems a perfect product for us to use. So far it's been easy and the plants are doing okay. We'll see how things go later in the summer and this winter!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have four tomato plants - 3 in the ground and 1 in the revolution planter. All are coming along nicely. I'm finding that I have to "fuss" more with the rev planter - taking the moisture strips in and out of the basket - to assure even watering. Also, the moisture stick does not seem to be accurate. It's either pure white or pure green, and not necessarily true to conditions. No tomatoes on any plants as yet, so I'm anxious to compare yield and quality. The jury's still out on whether I'm going to use this next year or not.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Using it on my patio. LIttle house finches like the idea of the water so after the water has drained to the plant, I put a dish in the plastic container and fill it with water so the birds can drink. (I cannot feed the birds due to "condo laws"...bummer.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I really liked the looks of this in the plant stand. Seems like a good product, have not had it long enough to see the results of the harvest.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Looks way better than the other tomato hangers you see everywhere, and so much more durable. I may add a lid for the water reservoir to slow evaporation. Also I may add a clear plastic tent over the foliage next year and start mine earlier. Spring in Seattle is tough on tomatoes and tenting helps in the ground - should do the same here. It's a shame this product isn't made in the USA.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Last year I got more produce from this item and it was easy to maintain. I've increased the number from 5 to 8. I could put 16 in the space I've provided.
Right now in a space of 6'x6' I have 8 tomatoes, 2 shelves of cucumbers, a varity of herbs and I planted lettuce on top of the Revolution planter which doubles the use of the planter.
All that is left in my ground garden is zucini, some gourds, swiss chard, beans, potatoes and scallions.
I'm hoping that next year I will put more plants in my areial area.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I bought two Revolution planters for my dad for Father's Day after my husband made a couple of homemade planters for us. My parents were amazed to see the tomato plants growing upside down and to see how much faster the plants grow than they do in the ground. What's not to love? No staking or caging, no threat of rabbits getting to the tomatoes before you do, and no weeding! Mom and Dad are looking forward to harvesting their first tomatoes in a few weeks!

Next year, I'll grow all of my tomato plants upside down in Revolution planters. I'll have more garden space and won't have to drag the hose out to the garden daily since the self-watering containers takes care of the plants for several days.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have bought 2 of these planters to try this year (this item is a new fad). I love the results so far, and will probably by more next year. They are well designed and very well made. I expect to get many years use from them.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The product is great for keeping the plants away from pests. It's very easy to use, though a bit heavy. The instructions are very weel written and easy to follow. I do go through more capillary strips than are supplied in the kit.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Gets very heavy so adequate support mandatory.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

takes up little space and I don't have to use a cage to support it

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

In a small space I can plant other vegetables such as peppers underneath.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I bought two products to grow tomatoes which are doing great. If you are growing big tomatoes, four feet from the ground is great space wise; if growing small tomatoes they will grow along the ground unless more height is given to the planter. Since this is the first time I am using these, I am pleased with how well they are built. I shall be able to use them next year too and hopefully longer.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Fantastic design and wonderful instructions. However it is very heavy and the pole I am using is bowing and perhaps not solid enough. I would stress in the catalog to have a very sturdy pole or fixture for the planter and state the weight of the final product planted, holding water and growing fruit.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Nice product...just wish it was easier to water than using a ladder.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

My husband and I are elderly and found the planter too heavy for us to hang alone. Unfortunately we damaged the tomato plant as it was inserted and it died. Now our tomato planter hangs empty on the patio, while we wait for our son to take it down for us.
Maybe we will try again next year, but I doubt it.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

With the stand and hanging cages we were able to move the tomatoes to a sunnier spot. So far they are doing well. The only problemd we are having is the water wick is not working well and is there a screen to put over the water basin to provent mosquitos from laying eggs in the water?

Easy to set up; it is heavy so you need a sturdy place to hang it; let's see if the tomatoes grow!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I purchased four planters. Of the initial four tomato plants, only 1 lasted more than a few days.
I am on my second set of plants. The dry climate in Colorado make keeping the plants hydrated a challenge. I fill the water reservoir mornings and evenings. Water level is usually almost dry.
There should be a cover that goes over the water reservoir to cut down evaporation in dry climates.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am very happy with this product so far. I have grown tomatoes (or tried) for years in my garden. I just never get good results with my tomatoes (blight, rotton tomoatoes, etc.). I already have big tomatoes on three of my plants and no sign any blight or spots. I'm sold.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

My parents don't have a good place to plant a garden but using this tomato planter works. My Dad put it on a post beside their patio and it's doing great! My Mom can't wait to pick the first tomato!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

My only "complaint" so far is that I didn't realize that the unit would "drip" a very dark liquid (from the organic/fertilized soil, I guess) that is discoloring my patio cement directly under the unit.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

This is my first one and so far it's working well. Have two Beef Steaks in it, and, despite some brown leaves from wind at the beginning, it's really starting to take off. Worry some when I feel the water reservoir is empty but then remember that there's a lot of water in the soil. So I don't panic and just refill. Think I'm going to like this product, even this early in the growing season.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

To grow tomatos

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Using it for tomato plants. I have a lot of shade but by using this and the stand that I also purchased from you I can put the plants in the direct sun.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Great Product, only con is that in a dry climate the watering system is slightly less effective than the older models.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The planter was higher quality than you find in the store. The self-watering feature makes it very easy to keep the plants hydrated.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

looking forward to some great tomatoes - started with two this year - most likely to get more for next

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I purchesed this product for myself and for gifts.
Everyone loves it! It is so much more attractive than the one on TV and from what I have seen-this one really works!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Having the swivel hook is great! It's a little hard to water, I've got it to high. I'll fiqure out something different for next year. I can see that the free standing multiple hanging rack would be the best bet.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have more than one type of these hanging planters. I find this hanger to be much more attractive! Also, it is practical for the traveler, since it has the water reservoir. Because of the reservoir, I find that after the initial watering, this product does not continue to drip. The only negative that has happened is my tomato plant snapped off in the wind (the same thing happened with the other brand too). Now I bring my plants in and hang them if it is too windy outside. I find that it is easier to hang (anywhere) than the other brand, because of the hanger-style hook at the top. You must already have a hook mounted to hang the other brand! I would recommend this product over the other brand any day!!!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The perfect design. We had 30 mile winds and I was afraid it would blow over and it hardly moved.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Have used an earlier version of product and this appears to be a much sturdier version, and with the stand that holds four of the upside down tomato containers, this is easier to hold the planters up with too. Additionally the integrated watering system makes it much easier to keep them consistently watered. I can't wait to taste the harvest later this summer from the four types of tomatoes we planted!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

This will give us a chance to have tomatoes that can be moved into the garden shed in case of hail or frost and will extend our time for fresh tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

This looks good and is of durable materials which withstand the wind in my area. Easy to read directions made putting it all together super easy.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Opening in the bottom was too small for the root balls of the tomato plants we bought. So we cut the slits longer, inserted the plant and then added 1/4" thick coconut fiber mat around the base to hold plant in place. Worked great.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The planter is user friendly and much easier to insert the plant compared to the competition. It is sturdy and the watering system is great.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am a beginner with this product. The concept seems great and I hope to have good results.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

One bears big boys and one has a mix of vining cucumbers and cherry tomatoes. It is a neighborhood must see.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Last year, I purchased 4 planters along with the 4 arm support. [...] Now they are on our front deck facing south The one tomato I fianlly planted last year was a dud. Too late and too much shade. I planted 4 this year, but after heavy rains, 2 died. The others are going strong, though I found out it is true the capillary strips wear out. I had to scavenge one from one of the deceased planters and it's working fine. I'm waiting for the free replacements. The hardest part is getting plants into the containers. Next time, I plan to make a paper cone to put around the plants so they don't get stipped of leaves and I can use the planting pot.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Withstood 40 mph winds without budging

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The Gardener's Revolution planter has worked well with my tomato plants. We have had an abundance of rain lately and the tomato is a sun-loving plant, but never-the-less my plants are thriving in their hanging planters. Because the plant hangs upside down, excess water drips out of the planter and the resevoir will aid it during dry weather periods. It reduces the chance of disease such as blight as the air circulates around the plant better too.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I love these Revolution Planters! I am growing tomatoes in these this year and it makes it so easy to do maintanence pinching with the planters at eye level.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

It is much more attractive than the first upside down waterers that we purchased and I like the way the watering system is easy to access.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I always know that your products are something I can count on. Consequently, I have ordered these as gifts, before I have even tried them out myself.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The planter was very sturdy compared to the planters I found at my local garden center. The planter was well worth the couple of extra dollars.
My tomato plant is growing like a weed.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The growth has been slow so far. It drips constantly, so I put a plant under it. The system is a clever idea. It keeps the rodents off my tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

It is difficult to get the tomato plant through the small hole without crushing it irretrievably but once that task is done it's a breeze. I don't have room for a vegetable garden so I love having tomato plants on my patio. No staking either!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Tomato and pepper plants doing quite well, better than most other gardens. With the extensive amount of rain that we have had in May and June, they are not sitting and rotting in the ground but rather drained of the excessive amount of water. Have already recommended this product to several people, who saw them fisrt hand.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Should develop instructions for green peppers and cucumbers, add emphasis on how heavy planter gets to show the need for strong support. We are too old to till our old-size garden, but are enjoying these gadgets immensely. Will let you know how the planters and potato bins produced after harvest time.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I'll do better next year. My wife bought a small plant and it was difficult to get it in the planter. More our fault than anything else.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I use the planters for tomatoes. Unfortunately I didn't know it was for determinate plants until AFTER I ordered them, because it didn't say so in the catalog. I had grown some plants from seed that were indeterminate. They're in the planters now. They seem to be working OK, but I had to find a way to hang them higher. So far they seem to be doing well. Another drawback is that they are very heavy. I had planned to hang them from the porch ceiling, but I quickly figured out that wouldn't work. I didn't want to pull my house down! Also, I can't get the self-watering part to work without taking the planter apart and soaking the wick every time. This is really a hassle with six plants! I decided that I'd be better off watering the plant myself. I like the concept of not having to stake the plants, though and not not having to deal with pests or fungal diseases from the ground. The concept is great, it just needs 'tweaking'.

(Whether I would recommend this to a friend or not, really depends on the friend. If they garden a lot and are patient, I would recommend it, but definitely not to a beginner!)

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I gave this to my Father for father's day. We had a lot of fun with it setting it up. He was intrigued with the watering system and how that worked. You can always buy a cheep knock off but it is never quite the same. You get what you pay for.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

It was very easy to put together, and the tomato plant is growing nicely. Can't wait to see tomatoes!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am using the planter for tomatoes, but we are having so much rain and cloudy weather that the plants are tutning yellow, so I don't have a good chance to see how well it is going to work.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Very well designed product. Big improvement over other upside down products.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have been able to make my tomatoes more accessable. I put them right my back door where I just walk out and get one. They don't have to be weeded or staked and continue to look attractive.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I had to try this tomato planter as I have problems with the local wildlife eating my tomatoes if planted in the ground. I have only had it hanging a few weeks and already have a small tomato started, very exciting. It is very heavy with the water resevoir so it is difficult to move when full. Best to put it where you want it to be permanently when you set it up.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Outstanding for avid gardeners who become disabled. Have help hanging. Provides lots of fresh vegetables in a small space. Great for people living in appartments with a balcony.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I've used four of these for two summers now. They're a simple, relatively low maintenance way to grow tomatoes with a couple of caveats:

1. Be sure to get very small tomato plants to transplant into them. A larger plant will be damaged when installing through the hole in the bottom.

2. I've had the best success with these when I leave the top reservoir out completely, cover the soil with weed fabric to reduce evaporation and use a liter bottle with a watering spike to supplement water.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Will let you know if planting the tomatoes produces
a good crop and if all the installation was worth it. We have had a lot of rain so should have a
good crop.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We live in a close community and this product allows me to enjoy vegetable plant growth just out the back door. It's appearance is pleasing to the eye in a gated community!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

At first I had bought the stand and only two bags but once I read the instructions I ordered two more bags. I have cherry and grape tomatoes planted in the bags and love 'em. The plants are thriving, even in the horrid heat we've been having. We have tomatoes on the plants already and I hope to have ripe ones by July 4th. Best of all,...no weeds around my plants!!!!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

this has been a fun and bountiful growing experience

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

A true break-thru for gardening in tight confines. I set the metal Tomato Tree in the back yard and set out four tomatoes in the bags; the 'self-watering' strips are a bit difficult as they are small. Next design could have 4-5 perforated 'spikes that dripped water into the soil like the 'bottle' watering spikes; or the watering pan cutworm barriers. Also should do these w/ side holes for strawberries!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We have been getting a lot of rain around here lately, and my tomatoe plants are NOT over watered thanks to the reservoir system. If the sun ever comes out again, I may still get some tomatoes this season.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Works great, looks good, good price.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Plants grow quickly due to warmer roots.
Easy access to plants.
Keeps plants off ground and away from soil insects and rodents.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Our plants already have tomatoes on them despite the unseasonally wet & chilly weather here in NY. It was easier to set up than I thought it would be. Just concerned about too much water when recieving repeated heavy rains. so far I flipped the wicks out & covered the whole stand with plastic to avoid a flood affect.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I was not happy with this product. The plants did not thrive compared to the ones I planted in the grown. They were much smaller and required a lot more supervision.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am the main gardner in our family with my husband's help when needed, however the idea of growing tomatoes, which he loves to eat, saw him having to have the hangers for growing tomatoes upside down. They are still young, new plants but he is excited!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Just too heavy to hang went full and then they bent my shepherd's hooks.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have found this planter easy to use when you follow the provided instructions and so far am blessed with a fast growing healthy tomato plant. In the past I've not been very successful in my gardening effort. But this has been great. Fast & easy & am looking forward to eating some great tomatoes!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have a tomato in one and a green pepper in the other. Both are doing great in a screened in pool patio deck in Florida. The self watering is allowing the plants to handle the June heat without any problem. I love the design and have bought these as presents for other family/friends and plan to purchase more for my own use.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I have 2 tomatoes on one of the 2 planters I ordered. We have had too much rain so I am trying not to be excessively optimistic.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Putting this Revolution planter together and filling with dirt and a tomato plant are relatively easy, but getting the moisture-absorbing strips set correctly and figuring out how often to fill the reservoir is a bit more difficult. One ought not go longer than a few days without refilling the reservoir. A week is too long (if one has to be out of town). I still don't know if my plant has too much moisture for its own good, but it seems to be setting blossoms. Additionally I had to attach plastic screening to protect the dangling tomato plant from hungry deer-- perhaps you ought to sell that also (maybe you do and I just missed it). This is a much more substantial tomato planter than the ones offered on the infomercials on TV.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I put my grape tomato plant in this about 6 weeks ago. The plant is growing really well and has little baby tomatoes on it the size of peas already. This is really fast for our northern climate. I have it hanging from a sunny corner of our house. It is heavy and you really need a second person to help you get the plant in, so one person can support the frame and the other person can position the plant, soil, water reservoir etc. BTW, the plant sort of "swoops" out to the sides. It does not grow straight down like any of the photos on the website or in the catalog. (Plants seek the sun, not the ground.)

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Great, I will purchase more next spring. Two months and already have ten tomato's. No diseases just healthy fruit.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The Gardener's Revolution planter is far nicer looking than its widely-sold rival, the Topsy Turvy. It's also bigger and sturdier. But with that quality comes weight. The notes on the website mention this: believe it! When I tried to mount mine, I discovered that nothing I owned was sturdy enough to hold the planter without keeling over, so I had to get a special rig built. Now that everything is set up, the planter is functioning as advertised and my plants are enormous and thriving: I'm eagerly looking forward to the tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Awkward to set up then heavy to hang.. Results TBD.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The gallon containers at the top of the planters are a great idea, however, here in Florida we have a problem with algae. With the mixture of sun and moisture algae forms and quickly blocks the moisture strips from functioning effectively. A nice lid on each container to block the sun would be handy and greatly lessen the need to periodically clean the moisture strips and containers. Currently I am using tinfoil to cover the containers.
Thank you!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

This is a WONDERFUL product! MUCH more heavy duty than the cheaper one advertised on television. My tomato plant is growing like CRAZY after only a few weeks and I'm looking forward to a bumper crop this season.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

need to find a good sturday place to set it up.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Though I haven't gotten to harvest yet, I think the design is brilliant and the plant seems very happy and healthy. Makes watering a no-brainer! Very easy set up.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I bought the whole thing with the stand, soil and fertilizer. It's too soon to tell how well they work. The stand is really nice!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

NICE SIZE, STURDY METAL CAGE AROUND GROWING BAG. CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY SPECIAL HANGER FOR MY TOMATO HANGERS.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I planted tomatoes as directed- using appropriate container medium. Tomatoes in "revolutionary" planters are now at least 3X smaller than "traditional" garden tomatoes and appear to be fighting for their existence. Very disappointing!!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The water resivore need to have a lid so that the water does not evaporate. Plus it will keep all the animals out, so the water will not get spilled.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am looking forward to the first blossoms which will give me great hope for tomatoes. The plant went into a bit of shock after trying to squeeze it into the bottom hole which was possibly too small for the plant. Got a late start so I picked a bigger plant. Next year I'll start with a smaller plant. Love the easy care provided by the water indicator and swivel hook. Love it.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The tomato plants are doing their best to grow anti-gravity despite the upside-down planting. Hopefully once the fruit grows, it doesn't weigh down and snap the u-turned stem! The growing method is novel but the plant doesn't seem as happy as my more conventionally-potted patio tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Really like the Revolution planter. Was rather suprised at the quality.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The Gardener's Revolution Planter seems to be working pretty well. We have two small tomatoes so far, where the other plants in our vegetable garden don't have any yet. When I purchased the planter, I completely underestimated the total weight of the product once it is filled with soil, a plant with fruit and water. It gets quite heavy. But over all it seems to be working just fine, and I possibly may purchase another for next season.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

As a first time user of this type of planter, I do not have enough history to comment extensively. I have limited gardening space and this should make the most of a small area. The planter is well constructed and easy to set up however, it is important to use a heavy duty stand and to balance the item with one of equal weight on stands with two or more hooks.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

You can only put really small tomato plants in to start it - but we'll know that for next year, and now that we have planter, we'll plant earlier.
It is so much sturdier than the Topsy Turvey planter - no comparison really.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

easy to assemble. receives lots of questions when shown to friends. hope to grow lots of tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I'm a beginning gardener with bad knees. The Revolution planters were easy for me to set up and easy to tend. They minimize work for me - no soil preparation, no staking. I always end up with more tomatoes that I originally plan and the Revolution planters let me add them easily over time.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I was a little nervous about wether or not this product would actually grow the way it says it does and if the tomatoes would be smaller. I was amazed at the size of the plant and the amount of fruit! I planted the same tomatoes in my raised bed and they did not grow nearly as fast or as full! I would recommend this to everyone!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

First time for this product. I have grape tomatoes planted and so far so good.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Very easy to assemble, the bags are sturdy and the soil stays moist for days.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

One of my tomato plants died, but the other one is doing well. I had difficulty finding something stable enough to hold the weight; finally settled on a tree in my yard!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

very durable and attractive. Much better than cheaper planters advertised on TV.Tomato plant looks like it is doing good. Like the water stick for info as to when to add more water.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Very easy to assemble. The self watering feature and watering gauge is awesome. It helps to ensure the plant does not get over watered.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We use this to plant hanging tomatoes in our vegetable garden. I looked at several of this type of hanging vegetable planter, and these are the most durable, most attractive, and well-designed.

Our plants are growing very well - they are healthier than those in the ground. Also, I like that next year I will not need to "rotate" the planters to another plant family -- just change out the dirt and plant tomatoes again!

THe only confusing thing is how to apply my granular organic fertilizer - I don't know if it will clog the capillary strips.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

The Revoluion Planter is very sturdy and
attractive, but also very heavy and difficult
to put together. It also was more expensive
than the upside down planters in local nurseries.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

We have this hanging in the yard where it gets plenty of sun but the leaves are getting yellow. I know we haven't had to water it much because of all the rain but the container looks very wet on the outside. Hoping for tomatoes!!! DB

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Tomato plant is rapidly growing and already has fruit.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

My neighbor and I are doing a joint veggie garden,and we've planted a few tomato plants the "old fashioned" way, and a few using this planter. For some reason, the plant grows faster in this planter!!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

My tomatoes are thriving thus far. Can't wait to see how these work once the plants start bearing tomatoes. They look very nice hanging on my deck.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

It is to heavy for any normal hanger.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Seems to be working fine to this point. It has only been up for about 3 weeks. I planted some of the same kind of tomatoes in my regular garden and those are not a big as the ones in the hanging planter. Also, these have stayed free of the flea beetles that have shown up on the plants in the regular garden.

The directions for the moisture indicator really don't clearly indicate how it works, so those could be improved, It should mention something about as the paper gets wet, the green color of the stick will show through.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

It's very heavy. I think having openings on the side would allow better exposure to the sun. I will see how well it does as the summer progresses.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am quite happy with this Revolutionary Planter. I just wish it came in a second version as well, i.e., 6-9 ports on the side for more plants in a single planter. Very attractive! I bought 4 as well as the powder coated stand. Very sturdy. I wouldn't mind having 2 or 3 complete sets!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

much better than the ones avertised on tv

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Much more sturdy than the Topsy Turvy advertised for $9.95. It's early in the season, but my plants have grown huge in just 4 weeks with flowers all over. It's easy to maintain. If the capillary strips get clogged, rinse them out with the hose and put them back.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I grow tomatoes on my patio using your wonderful planter stands.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I found it easy to plant my tomato, but did need my husband to hang it for me due to the weight when full. My tomato is already growing well. I really like the water indicator on the side.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

It may be me, but I've followed the directions to a tee and still my tomatoes rot in the container.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I've used the "as seen on TV" planter for 4 or 5 seasons-they only last 2 before they must be replaced. The other big problem is excess water usage.

This is a superior product that looks to last for many years. The soil moisture indicator is a great idea. My only problem is needing to replace wick strips and moisture indicators several times during the growing season.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Instructions are somewhat confusing but the planter is as described. You do need two people to hang it once put together. It's very heavy once filled with soil.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I love the top container for water. It makes watering very easy!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am very impressed with this item, using it for a tomatoe planter, and the vine is really growing.
The moisture indicator is extremely helpful, taking all guess work out of watering

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Tried 4 tomato plants and all 4 died. I would not buy this product again. And will tell others that it doesn't work. As for the 2 hangers they were very well maded.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I am new to vegetable gardening and own a townhome so I do not have land to plant a garden. I wanted to grow tomatoes and have found that the Gardener's Revolution Planter is the perfect solution. It is hanging on my deck. After 4 weeks, the tomato plant has grown quite nicely. It is about to get flowers at this point. The reservoir makes it easy to water the plant and the moisture indicator prevents me from over watering. I do believe that I will have a successful season of tomato growing my first time out!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

Easy to use and my tomatoes are growing great. I will buy two more next year.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I got this tomato planter to hang off my deck so the deer couldn't get to it. So far the plant is doing great, and its very easy to take care of--no staking, easy to water. Also, away from the ground and pests, including insects and deer! The moisture indicator works well, too.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I purchased two for my greenhouse. This product is much better than others I have seen. The wire cage is great as well as the hangers. Found this very easy to set up. Will probably want more next summer for plants other than tomatoes.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I purchased this product for my daughter who never seems to have enough time to care for her vegetable plants. We also purchased the similar product advertised on tv and can tell you that the plants in the Garden Supply planter have grown twice as much as the cheaper version. Garden Supply's planter is much sturdier and a better quality so in the long run the much better deal!

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

need to inform buy to get small plants to put in this system, had beautifull large tomatoes and they have suffered from shock from going threw the small opening, otherwise they are very happy now.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

My small garden has limited sun space but I can grow more tomatoes using a trellis to do double duty.

Comments about Gardener's Revolution™ Planter:

I ordered another planter from you some time ago and this current one has some spiffy modifications. I like the moisture indicator & the extra wicks. We grew tomatoes all winter long inside!
