What is a sweet 100?
It’s a type of cherry tomato:
From Burpee’s
Sweet 100
This garden favorite bears 100 or more small, sweet red tomatoes in clusters on long branches.
Spacing: 24-36in (60-90cm)
Exposure: Full Sun - 6+ hours direct sun
Fruit size: 1in (3cm)
Days to harvest: 70
Bursting with sugary flavor, Sweet 100s produce scarlet, cherry-sized fruits in long clusters right up to frost. Youll definitely want to stake or cage these vigorous climbers to keep the fruit off the ground and avoid pests and diseases. These tomatoes need at least one inch (2.5 cm) of water per week and prefer six hours or more of direct sun each day.
Cherry-type tomatoes do very well in sunny patio containers and hanging baskets. Be sure to offer plenty of light, and monitor moisture; plants in containers can dry out faster than those planted in the ground.
Plant cherry tomatoes in the garden 3 feet apart in rows. Each row should be spaced 48 inches apart. It’s very tempting to put them closer at planting time, but if you get them too close you’ll only increase the chance of disease.
