SFG 1 per sqft assumes single-leader pruning + sturdy vertical trellis; commercial spacing for indeterminates is 24-36 in. Seed-to-harvest varies meaningfully by variety (60-85 days from transplant).

Year-two cherry tomato on the deck. Picked up from Rose Hill Nurseries — I didn't write down the variety, but it was likely something similar to Supersweet 100.

I didn’t keep the variety tag for this one. Based on shape, color, and how much it produced over the season, it was likely Supersweet 100 (or similar) — small bright-red cherries on long trusses, indeterminate, very generous. Lived in the same single planter as the MOMOTARO did the year before.
