I have found that the ambrosia cherry tom grows best for me , it puts up with our weather ,grows well and produces fruit of a decent and regular size. I experimented with one the other year and did not stop it at 5 trusses, it had been planted in the g/house in late march and gave 17 trusses and grew up ,across, and halfway down the other side of a 10 x 8 greenhouse, and they tasted really good and the last toms were picked in October in a mild autumn..

That’s a shame - one of the most common varieties of cherry toms, hard to beat for crop size and has a lovely flavour.

I don't know why some plants decide to produce small fruit - I have two Tumblers treated exactly the same way in baskets right next to each other.... one is producing normal sized fruit, and one is producing annoyingly small fruit. The difference is very noticeable. I don't think there's anything to be done about it at this stage.

Hi Bbb and welcome to the Vine. Sounds like you are doing everything right. Some cherry tomatoes are small. Little explosions of taste and especially so if roasted and for example served with fish dishes

Small cherry tomato fruits
Hi all,
Growing some tumbling cherry tomatoes in hanging baskets and the plants are doing well and have hundreds of small green tomatoes on. Some of them are now turning red but they're still tiny, about 5p size! How can I encourage the remaining fruits to grow bigger before they ripn? They get plenty of sun, and I feed with tomorite.
