Don't grow them. Had 4 plants, started September, still going, didn't count the tomatoes but have done 30 x 400ml jars relish, 9 x 1 litre jars juice, 4 x 500ml jars sauce, about 300grams paste, given millions of tomatoes away and lived of them for ages now. Can't complain.

Sweet 100 did pretty good this year, Two half wine barrels on a patio (semi sheltered) each with 4 plants. Did as good if not better than any previous year (been doing this for 15+ years) and for the first time ever I didn't spray, at all. Only fed the plants twice I think. Being in a container they were watered regularly.

Got masses of this type of tomato this year. Bought 4 plants from PaknSave turned out to be bright yellow/orange fruit. Growing in soil up against a shed side - very sunny. Still Picking.

We've just pulled ours out. They were wonderful, very prolific.
