GROWING SUN GOLD CHERRY TOMATOES FROM SEED: EASY + DELICIOUS!

In this episode I share how to start growing delicious Sun Gold Cherry tomatoes from seed.

Sun Gold Tomatoes are SUPER tasty but are hard to find in grocery stores and farmer markets because they don't travel well and aren't viable commercially for many growers since they are delicate. They are also hard to find on the East Coast in starter plants so, I decided to start growing from seed three years ago.

Here's what you'll need to get going:

1 Packet of Sun Gold (F1) Cherry Tomatoes: $4.55
I have been using Johnny's Selected Seeds which have germinated easily and produced a high yield.

1 Pack of Jiffy Peat Pots 3" (22 pots per Pack) $4.99

2 Pack of Jiffy Peat Pots 5" (6 pots per Pack) $4.99

1 Seedling Plastic Growing Tray (5 trays per Pack) $18.99

1 Seedling/Plant Heat Mat 10'x20" $11.99

1 Bag Potting Soil: 1 Bag $10

1 Bag Jiffy Seed Starting Mix $6

LED Grow Light
KING LED 600W Light $99

Steel Wire Shelving $59
I recommend 72" High and at least 33" W, this will give you flexibility for adding more shelves and lights. Height is more important since you need to have room for hanging/adjusting LED light.
