Sun Gold vs. Sun Sugar Cherry Tomatoes
I grew both Sun Gold (left side of photo) and Sun Sugar (right) to compare, both from seed started inside this past March. Both are grown in a similar area with full sun all day. Both plants are probably 8' by now and are productive.
It seems Sun Gold for me has a hard time getting a deeper yellow/orange. When Sun Gold does get that color, the flavor is good, but they are most often split/cracked.
Sun Sugars are always advertised as being less prone to crack, and I do agree. The color is beautiful, they don't crack easily, and flavor is excellent. On the slight negative, their skin is a bit thicker than Sun Gold.
I'll be growing Sun Sugar next year for sure, probably not Sun Gold.
Your thoughts?
