The people who first introduced me to fresh, homegrown tomatoes had a town backyard, about 20 x 25 feet, that was entirely filled with towering tomato plants.

They said they just let them reseed every year and didn't do much to care for them. I've since heard that growing them in the same soil each year isnt a great idea, but they had like a million tomatoes on those plants. And the ones they gave me were delicious.
