Topsy Turvy Upside - Down Tomato Planter — 

TOPSY TURVY PLANER.

I am not having good luck. My plants appear to be dying more each day. Every day I cut dead and withered leaves from the plant. I followed the directions to the T. Any suggestions.? Thumbs DOWN!!!

Perhaps you had a plant that had a fungi on it? Funny my street is turning into topsy turvy town lol. Plants look healthy...I know it would be a pain, but may be a plant trans plant.

I have changed the soil, checked the moisture, fertilized. Looking pretty terminal. Bad product....... :(

I checked with a group of Master gardeners yesterday and they said it soulds like a soil issue. They also said if it's a leaf here and there not to worry to much about it. If it's more of the whole plant then change the soil. Give it a little Miricle grow once a week. Hope this helps.

I have been asking what could be making your leaves do what they do, but most are saying to much water...Still looking for the answer for you :)

I'm not having good luck either, and neither is my friend. Two of my four plants have died. My friend lost two out of four as well. I have never lost a tomato plant with regular planting. BUT, the weather just now started becoming warmer and sunny. I noticed that water continually drips from the foam piece onto the tomatoes for DAYS. The instructions say you can't overwater. But, I think I'm going to squeeze the water out of the foam to where it isn't dripping all the time. I have not given up. I would love to hear from others about this. Shirley
