The Best Indoor Tomatoes??

I know I know, you think yours are the best :D

I don't know if I just need sleep, or if I over loaded myself on info, but I'm at loss which tomatoes are best for my indoor space

Sure I can see that cherry tomatoes are bite sized treats, but what I don't understand is how big the actual plant grows!! I'm looking for a tomato plant that won't grow past 24 inches. But yields lots, tasty and sweet. I've been looking at https://www.burpee.com for seeds.

my indoor garden just won't feel complete with tomatoes!

any suggestions?

There may be a cherry tomato variety that doesn't grow much taller than 2', but the ones I grew this summer became at least 6' tall and about 4' wide. They bore plenty of fruit, though, and are still bearing. :)

You might try tomato growers supply. They have a variety of dwarf plant seeds. The description will include the plant and fruit size. I have purchased from them, and the service is good. Good luck

The best indoor tomatoes are both crack resistant and short growing. You may also want to choose a variety that finishes quickly.......it will save you a little money on your electric bill if you are using artificial lighting.
