   fertilize it regularly with miracle grow and you will be picking a long time

   You have already established that your plant is indeterminate if it is still producing in it’s second year. With regular care and no cold weather it will continue to grow and produce for quite a few years. I have two early girl tomato plants, in addition to several sweet and hot peppers that are going on their fourth year. One habanero plant that is over six years old and still producing.

   I am pretty sure that once it blossoms and grows fruit, that will be the end of it. It won’t grow more tomatoes. You will have to plant another plant.

   You’re probably getting volunteers. Although tomatoes are perennial, it is best to plant new ones annually.
