Scott,
Did you buy these on Island or send away for them? Are the tomatos still producing for you? I tried one here in Michigan. It was doing well, huge plant, baby tomotos and all, but then died. I was told that most likely it got some sort of blight. It seems to be happening here a lot with the Topsy Turvys, even was a bit about it on Good Morning America today. Someone suggested that I needed to use copper to prevent it next time, but I'm not sure if this is applied as a spray to the leaves, added to the soil or added some other way. We will be on Island this winter and thought it might be fun to give a couple of Topsys try.
