CFRB 1010 Question of the Week
The Garden Show: Saturday, March 22
 
Caller: Sarah

My husband wants to grow Cherry tomatoes and Grape tomatoes. What is the best way to grow these tomatoes?



I've had good luck with them both. The new grape tomatoes are unbelievable. If you like sweet tomatoes, grape tomatoes are great! I had some growing in a container last year right outside the kitchen door. I grew them in a half barrel. Ask for grape tomatoes at the garden centre this spring. The kind you grow yourself are much sweeter than those you purchase at the grocery store because they are grown for taste and not for shipping. Most varieties of tomatoes in the grocery store are grown for their ability to withstand shipping.

My favourite cherry tomato is Sweet Million. Nothing is easier to grow and one plant produces a large enough crop to satisfy 2 people.

Sweet Million
