Default Sungold (Cherry) tomato: sun or shade?

(Noam Avnery) wrote in message . com...
Hi.
I have some Sungold plants, and I think they're suffering from the heat.
This time of year it's 90F (32C) over here..
Is it true that Tomato plants prefer shade?
Thanks,

Noam


Mulch to preserve and even out soil moisture.
If you grow tomatoes in shade you will get pretty foliage and few if any fruit.
It takes sun to make carbohydrate and carbohydrate to make fruit.
