I have a limited space and want to grow as many tomatoes as I can in a small area. In your experience, which top three tomatoes have the highest production (number of fruit per plant, excluding cherry and plum types) in our hot, humid climate? (experience not what the seed packet says). Also it doesn’t matter about flavor which is too subjective to evaluate. Actually to paraphrase a famous quote: “I never ate a tomato that I didn’t like”. Cut up in a bowl with a little s&p, olive oil and lemon juice can make the worst tomato taste good.
I also posted this in the Tomato Forum.
Your top 3 tomato producers
Cherokee Purple: It is subject to cracking, but it tastes out of this world
Juliette: it's a large jellybean type tomato and last year I literally got thousands off of each vine. Most productive thing I've ever seen. I roasted these and sungolds for bags and bags of the best frozen tomato sauce.
Brandywine: not so productive, but grown for taste
I don't have alot of experience with tomatoes but grew green zebra last year and it did not fruit up until a little later than the rest, but did produce alot of tomatoes. It's a green tomato, good for salsa.
Also like Giant Italian Beefsteak. Yummy and pretty.
