I was not impressed with it. Fruit was very small, no juice and average tasting. TGS said it was great for small containers, so I grew mine in a 5 gallon container.

I got the same seeds for the same reason.

Both are in ground but not overly large plants so may do fine in containers. Very sweet, very early, very prolific, easy to grow.

Grape sized, not juicy. My household votes one yes, one qualified no, with acknowledgement of the above listed, positive attributes.

If you or someone in your house, like the very sweets, I see no reason not to try it. If I want a grape, I'd rather eat a grape and prefer my toms to taste more tomatoey. Probably a good one for finiky kids.

Died in childbirth.

I am personally not too fond of grape types. I usually like my tomatoes juicy and slurpy, not firm and crunchy. However, several people I gave this away to just loved it - said it was refreshing, sweet, and made a nice snack.

It's sure not a favorite given my personal tastes -- but I thought it was good to very good for what it is. Tastes like the pricey grapettes at the grocery, but a notch above. Insanely productive and sets exceedingly well in heat. I have a confession - I pulled my plant today because it was still setting and I was tired of picking them. :-)

Most of the fruits were about one inch long, or just a little longer. Four foot plants in my garden, a lg cheapie cage *just* worked for this var, but I did eventually have to put a small stake too so the cage wouldn't topple.

My plants were RL, which I thought I would mention, as I have seen a few report PL leaf type.

Here is a link that might be useful: Sprite picture

Suze, I love your tomato pictures. Gave me tomato envy. I have seeds for Sprite, but haven't tried them yet. I think I'll put them on the list to try for next year.

I wasn't that crazy about Sprite and I even like Juliet which I know nobody like but me. (Nice of them to keep producing Juliet seeds for just one person.)

If you get alot of grapes and you get sick of the them--dry them. It concentrates the flavors.

Suze has a good description of grapes-- firm and crunchy.

Its not fair to judge on one growing season but I am just not up for trying Sprite again.

DRIED JULIETS

Hi,

I agree with the previous posts. It was better than I expected, but I won't grow it again. And once my large tomatoes start ripening, I tend to lose interest in the cherries. They almost become an irritation LOL! I'd much rather have one perfectly ripe large tomato than 50-100 little sprites.

They taste OK, though, and not wanting to waste them, I've put a bunch (just piercing the skin a bit) in the dehydrator. They dry up like little raisins. Just surfing the web the other day and looking at the tasting menus of some very elite restaurants, I see that one (argueably the most highly rated in the US at the moment - The French Laundry)has dishes listed that include "tomato raisins" - which I suspect are just dried grape tomatoes (maybe even sprite). So they might be useful raised for that purpose - fresh, they're just so-so.
