They also get one treatment of liquid seaweed fertilizer when transplanted over whole plant, and one more when they set flower, but only over the roots. Unfortunately, my cherry tomato space is limited to 12 plants per season, so I only grow 2 of these each year. These bright yellow cherry tomatoes are extremely sweet, often the first to ripen, and are still producing ripe fruit well into October. I about 200+ fruit per plant, even in the relatively small pot. The day before first frost, I usually pick 60+ green fruit, and most of those ripen in brown bags in my kitchen, so I am still eating fresh ripe fruit on Thanksgiving. These are the largest of the cherries that I grow, and are slightly less prolific. Since they are slightly larger, then the yield is about the same. While not quite as sweet as Sungold and Supersweet 100, their flesh is very tender, and makes a great contrast. I love these guys.

Great production all season long and are still going strong even though some of my others are slowing down.
