Happy New Year!

Asking for Zone 8 recommendations for “large” fruit cherry tomatoes. Getting ready next week to plant my flats under grow lights. Expect to repot mid to end of February for transplanting about 15 March.

This year I’m concentrating on tomatoes, cucumbers, sweet and hot peppers. Gonna try again with last year’s failed crops: squash, eggplant and pole beans.

Best to all,
R.

That's easy ... Husky Cherry Red ... can't be beat for hardiness, great tasting fruit, and exceptional production even in heat. I plant 2 of these every year, and we can hardly keep up with eating (and I eat my share while out in the garden). I am Zone 8 too.
