If those are normal tomato plants (eg not dwarfs) they will grow to be massive. Easily 6+ feet tall and a few feet wide each. I Florida weave my plants, and live in zone 6 which caps their lifespan, and things like cherry tomatoes will grow to be 8 feet tall if you let them.
Also start thinking about how you're going to support them. Getting supports in after the plants fill that space will be difficult.
Iirc they are a cherry and San marzano? One determinate, the other isn’t. I’ve got some trellis netting, but may also figure out if I can get a cage on them somehow too.
I’ve already culled them down to 4 plants this morning.
