Toddler ripped up my Sungold..!!!

AGH, my most valued tomato variety had a tough start due to bugs... I FINALLY transplanted it this week and it started to show some growth and my 1 year old son went out into the garden and ripped off the stems, leaving it with only two.. =(

Anyway since I no longer know if the sungold will fully recover, I started a Sunsugar that I just got in the mail.... hope this one has better luck ;)

Fences work for toddlers too. :)

Cuttings? Cuttings? If anything is salvageable, root it in water!

If the roots are still in place, it may recover. Those Sungolds are very vigorous once they get going! Hopefully it will pop back quickly and still give you lots of tomatoes by mid-summer.
