Welcome to All Things Plants doctorman. I don't want to discourage you, but I would suggest you do a little more research before you start supplying your family's tomato needs.

I don't know of any varieties which meet your requirements.

104 pounds of cherry tomatoes from a single plant may be unrealistic. At 1/2 oz. per cherry T. that would require about 64 tomatoes ripening per week or 6 to 16 clusters per week. Hand pollinated.

Best of luck. Claud



Thanks Claud .. well I was hoping to get there but did not do the calculations..
I got some seeds for sweet baby girl cherry tomatoes .. I read goo reviews on it.
I will start with 2-3 plants.. considering they wil get big and and my space is limited I think that would be the best use of space

How many pounds is the average per plant per year yield?
Also Ia m doing it indoor so the plants can have fruits all year round..
again I appreciate the reality check
per pound yield is the large size tomatoes or cherry tomatoes produce more per plant?
