   Hi All,   
      
   I have a 20 gallon container with cage for growing   
   my cherry tomatoes.   
      
   I usually plant Sweet 100's, but for the last two   
   years, the greenhouses have had failures on sweet   
   100's so I plant what every cherry tomato I can find.   
      
   This year I planted two red cherry and one black cherry.   
      
   I did not water one day.  I noticed the next day a lot   
   of dead leaves at the bottom of the growth.  When I   
   cleaned out all the dead stuff, I found that the black   
   cherry had killed both of the red cherries.   
      
   Hmmmm.  The red cherry did not taste all that good   
   and the black completely took over the pot.  And   
   the blacks taste a lot better.  Plus the black is   
   prolific, so I am getting a lot of tomatoes.   
      
   Now I know that certain desert plant will emit   
   herbicides to kill of their neighbors so they can   
   have better access to ground water.  Have you guys   
   ever heard of tomatoes killing off their too   
   close rivals?   
      
   I wonder if all three were blacks if this would   
   have happened.   
      
   Also, cheaper if I only have to buy one plant.
