Burpee ' Chadwick Cherry' Organic | Red Cherry Tomato | 75 Seeds

Started indoors from seed myself. I grew over 20 different varieties of tomatoes (all organic seed). It was an exceptionally cool summer this year and most of my tomatoes tasted very bland or "store bought" because of the cool weather. These still tasted great, very very sweet and each the size of a large marble, all hanging picture perfectly on little individual branches. I got about six to eight little tomatoes off each branch and quite a few branches. Perfect for a snack but even better to throw in a salad. I was able to make salads a night in advance for lunch because they are such a perfect size I didn't have to cut them, so it didn't make my salad mushy. I love the fact that even though it's a cherry variety and it produces a nice crop, it doesn't get covered it a million messy branches full of tiny tomatoes. I find that the plants that have tons of little cherry tomatoes on them just tend to get wasted. They crack, they fall, they rot, you know how it is. Not a single one cracked, fell to the ground or got wasted on this wonderful tomato. Three plants kept my family stocked all summer.

I was given a pack of Chadwick cherry seeds and I planted 6 with 100% germination. 4 were transplanted in the garden after 6 weeks and fruit started ripening and ready in 2 months. I pruned pretty aggressively early and probably harvested 6 milk jugs (gallon) of large cherries over 3 months. This is the only red cherry that I'll plant this year.
