your sweetest tastiest cherry tomato variety suggestions please

[NappiesGalore]

this week, i have mostly been snacking on these gorgeous little yellow cherry toms from waitose. i do like to grow a tomato or two but am novice. i have 6 diff varieties on the grow this yr, but i wondered if anyone had some real favourites for juicy sweet flavour theyd like to share the names of so i can get the seeds and do some.

cheers!

We grew a variety called moneymaker (i think!) they were really lovely and sweet.

Someone recommended Sungold here once and that is what I have in my green house this year. Outside I'm trying olive toms. i'll let you know how they rate on sweetness.

My Grandad swore by comfrey and nettle tea once a week to feed his toms. It is those that I try to emulate now - have a great childhood memory of pinching toms from his greenhouse and they were always really sweet.

Gardener's Delight.

I have never found Moneymaker that good - I think they're selected for large crop rather than flavour.

sungold...they are lovely, like eating sweets when warm from the greenhouse!

hmmm willtry to get some sunglod then. ta

Kathy - Sweet Million is even tastier than Gardener's Delight.

Is it too late to plant them for this year? I am liking the sound of Sungold and Sweet Million.

Might be too late to grow from seed but you can buy the young plants from garden centres.

nah, not too late if you have somewhere really warm to get them going and grow them in pots so you can bring them in late in the season if it gets cold and theyre still going. i reckon. (i am about as far from expert as you can get tho)

My favourite are the tumbling ones!
I love you wandering outside and picking a tomato though though by about September they star making me feel ill

Gardeners delight have always given us best results, both crop and flavour.

Shirley were a disaster and moneymaker didn't crop well at all here.

I do have all mine outdoors though and so a lot depends on the weather.

I've planted gardeners delight but the leaves are turning white. Any idea what this might be? Sorry to hijack. I like the tumbling sort too. Not sure why I planted gardeners delight to be honest. Still, I'd like thme not to die on me.

NKF if it's white & a bit fluffy it's mealybugs - ladybirds eat them or you can spray them with insecticide if you prefer chemical warfare.

If it's a mould then you're probably doomed. Especially if they're in a hot, damp greenhouse.

Failing that it's probably a mineral deficiency so try feeding them something. ALthough leaves usually go yellow if that's the case.

Good luck with them!

Sungold wins hands down in my opinion - and has had a very long cropping time in the last two winters - I think I picked my last ones in December (In yorkshire, in a greenhouse that is really a draughty glorified cold frame!)
