    This is the second year in a row I grow Sun Gold Tomato from BI. 100% germination rate both years. These tomatoes grow like crazy - VERY tall with wide branches. I made a mistake last year and put 6 plants in my garden bed and it became a wild jungle. This year I’ll put less to space them properly.

    The only downside is that these tomatoes have very thin skin which splits easily. It’s no biggie though. They are very sweet and delicious, also super prolific.

    I’ve bought a bunch of metal birdies raised beds and a few seeds from epic gardening. The raised beds are easy assemble and have a clean look to them. All the seeds I’ve bought are really good quality and germinate very easily!!
