DonShirer said:I have had good success with Mountain Fresh this year. Grew one plant in a 3 gallon container in the sun and it is producing at least a dozen perfect medium-sized globes so far. I put another plant in an "overflow" area that only gets 4-5 hours sun and although it took 2 weeks longer, I have started to harvest fruits from that as well.

By the way, I have a SunGold plant in that shaded "overflow" area as well, and its fruit does not crack as much as a plant in full sun, but is still producing well. I picked 32 of them yesterday minus several that somehow did not make it back to the house (but tasted great!).


I would like to get seeds for Mountain Magic. That would be a size I am looking for. Plus I read that it produces a lot of fruit.

On the Sungolds, I just ordered seeds for ones called Orange Parauche which are supposed to be even an improvement over the Sungolds. Currently am growing SunSugar and I go love it.
