Default Golden sunrise

Hi,

I've sown some Golden Sunrise tomatoes and they are now a few inches tall:

It says on the above website that they are bush habit. Does that mean
they can't be trained as a cordon? I was planning to grow it as a cordon
in my greenhouse.

Thanks.

I think you can grow them as a cordon with no problems. Bush habit just
means that if you leave them as they are, they will form a self-supporting
bush unlike most varieties which will flop on the ground under their own
weight. You can grow all sorts of things as cordons such as fruit bushes or
apple trees so I can't imagine that a bushy tomato should present any
difficulties.
