The problem with growing root vegetables vertically is the harvesting of them afterwards. The root vegetables grow thick and outgrow the spacing in the mesh that convesional vertical plots have. this means that when you pull out a carrot it will tear off the flesh that has outgrown the mesh. this designs mesh is elasticated and only fastned on one axis so it can be moved slightly to help get that veg out safe.
