More than One Tomato

It is a joke in my family but no matter how many tomato plants I may plant, I only seem to grow one tomato. I have been raised on potted tomato plants because my family never really had an area for a decent garden. At this point in my life, I have a shaded patio which does not offer enough sun to my tomato plants. My daughter, when she was twelve went over to a friend's house who had beautiful tomato plants bursting with the fruit. Until that point, she thought all tomato plants yielded just one tomato. I want to move into a world of sun and other growers who can help me cultivate the heck of my plants.
