Does anyone here know which one has the bigger fruit? Is it the Cherry
or the Sweet Bite? I'd like to know for future reference, since I
prefer the tomato plant that had the bigger fruit. Thanks.


I planted Sweet Bite last year, Cherry Red (I think, or it might
have been Red Cherry) this year, because I couldn't get seedlings
for the former. I also had one Sweet Bite plant come up this year
(from last year's droppings), and cultivated it.

The Sweet Bite were definitely smaller than the Cherry Red and had a
much better flavour IMHO. Both were very sweet and juicy. Typical
sizes were about 1-2 cm for the Sweet Bite and 3-4 cm for the Cherry
Red. Both were prolific croppers.
