Hey everyone,
I'm doing tomatoes in my bounty for the first time (Roma and Sweetie), but I think they're gonna go outside once the seedlings are a little bigger. Now I'm just trying to figure out which cherry tomatoes we'll put in the bounty full-time (open to suggestions).
All that aside, which tomato varieties does everyone prefer in their aerogarden? Any tomatoes that are perfect for indoor growing? Any that don't play nice indoors? Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum cronenferg! I am just starting to grow tomatoes in all my years of AG'ing so I am no help. But from what I have read, the Red Robins (I am growing them now) do well in the AG's as well as Window Box Micro Drawf. Check of the Highly Recommended board to see what others say. Also if you go thru the members gardens you can see what others grow. Of course, also wait for members to reply here! Looking forward to your future posts.

I am growing the Window Box red in a Bounty, and they are doing well so far. It has very good reviews here on the board.
thegrindre also has grown several crops of Tiny Tims. I'll let him tell you about his positive experiences with them.

I grew the AG Heirloom Tomato kit last Spring/Summer/Fall and had some good success with it. I have not tried any others, but am actually also considering planting some tomatoes in one of my AGs soon! So will be following this thread!

Go to tomatoes? Most any cherry heirloom is great. I've grown all that AG has to offer and I like them all just fine. I have one plant that's well over 6 months old and still producing toms. Very sweet toms, BTW. Tiny Tim Tomatoes from seed and you can follow here if you want;

Orange hat cherry tomatoes work well too. These are so small you can plant one in every pod.
