They grew like crazy to five or six feet tall. And yielded a grand total of three tomatoes. Maybe insufficient pollination. And the three weren't that great. Go figure...
And I did a similar thing ..... made a garden entirely from black cow, grew huge tomato plants from heirloom seeds and when I got tomatoes the birds pecked each and every one before we could get there ..... Now, I just grow native flowering plants.
