While not a new variety for us, Sweet Gold was brought back by popular demand. Vigorous, indeterminate plants are very high yielding, producing single and double clusters of early maturing fruits in about 60 days from transplant. The attractive, bright yellow fruits weigh around .5 ounces and boast a full, delicious flavor. Sweet Gold is an excellent companion to the red-fruited Sweet Million.

HR = High resistance: plant varieties that highly restrict the growth and development of the specified pest or pathogen under normal pest or pathogen pressure when compared to susceptible varieties. These plant varieties may, however, exhibit some symptoms or damage under heavy pathogen or pest pressure.
IR = Intermediate resistance: plant varieties that restrict the growth and development of the specified pest or pathogen, but may exhibit a greater range of symptoms or damage compared to “highly resistant” varieties. Intermediately resistant plant varieties will still show less severe symptoms or damage than susceptible plant varieties when grown under similar environmental conditions and/or pathogen or pest pressure.
T = Tolerance: The ability of a plant variety to endure abiotic stress without serious consequences for growth, appearance and yield.
