The size of tomato plants in my greenhouse is ridiculous. It's attached to the south side of my house so completely sheltered on the north side.
Compared to other plants though, Black Cherry has clusters every two feet maybe, cw a foot between clusters on most everything else. I let all the low suckers grow out, to maximize the fruit within reach. I thought I'd let them get a little taller, and before I knew it they were out of reach! I will be sad to cut these beauties, they seem to like it up there.
Moravsky Div, Stupice, Oaxacan Jewel, Black Sea Man and Vorlon by comparison are all 5-6 ft tall at this stage. Violet Jasper is around 9 ft tall, Galinas and Anna Russian around 8 ft so I topped them yesterday.
