I grew those last year as well as my friend who I gave plants to. It grew to about 18" and produced about 20-30 tomatoes on each. This was in 3-5G grow bags. I enjoyed the variety, but probably won't grow it again. It is a determinate too if i recall, it didn't keep fruiting all season.

I think I'll use this seasons Cherokee Green for making a sauce instead. I've been wanting to do a red tomato sauce, green tomato sauce, and maybe an Alfredo to make a color array. |

I wonder how earthbox compares to a straw bale. Seems like it could be similar. I'm Using bales this year but only for my peppers as a trial. |

I haven't been able to grow in soil for years, so it would be hard me to compare. We get lots of days over 90, even 100, and it's quite dry with virtually no rain for months. I have some fruit trees and vines in the ground, and try to convince myself withholding water is a good thing. |

My first few Black Cherry fruit have ripened (a little over 50 days from transplant). Thankfully, they are better tasting than the first time I grew them!

Wow, that is early. I grew them last year, quite prolific and a good bit of acid bite to it; I like that. That said, I didn't grow them again this year. I only grow about 5-6 cherry tomato plants as I don't use them often compared to slicers or saucers.

Here is this morning's harvest... a fully ripe Dester at the top (64 days since transplant!), a slightly under-ripe Summer Sweet Gold to the right (that'll likely be 65 days as it isn't quite ready today), some more Black Cherry at the bottom, and a not-quite-ripe-yet Dwarf Firebird Sweet to the left (that should also be 65 days come tomorrow).
