Has Anyone Grown Sungold Tomatoes?

[NietzscheKeen]

I am growing about a dozen this year and they don't seem to be true sungolds. They are cherry sized, but are very red. They are very sweet, but I'm still not convinced that I have received true sungold seeds.

Yea I grow them every year and they are delicious little bastards. I've even got 5-6 coming up as volunteers from last years girl.

I would do research on them to see if you did get the real deal or not.

Thanks, they are very sweet. I've done a little bit or research, but I don't know what else I can do other than ask around and look at photos.

maybe post some photos of what you have and someone might be able to help you out.

Good idea. I will do that tomorrow if the sun comes back.

Sounds suspect. Orange is orange. And red isn't orange.

sun-golds are hybrids. If grown from seed then chances are you may end up with a few different types of sun-golds.

You sure purpz? I new the big zacs were, but was surprised to find that they were smaller when not the true hybrid.
