Suggestions for a Super-Early Det. Cherry?

kath · February 5, 2015

Well, it's February and I can't stand it any more- have to try again to plant a determinate cherry NOW under lights and then move it to the greenhouse (April?) when it outgrows the lights. Needs to be 3-4' max, very productive and tasty but not acidic, too seedy or tough-skinned. Don't really want larger fruits, especially if there would be fewer of them. I'd consider a shorter variety (18"+) if you think they produce enough fruits to be worth it.

Have been considering Golden Nugget, Jagodka, Pearly Pink Orange and Sprite. What's worked the best in your greenhouses? Any suggestions appreciated. TIA!
