Interesting, I would qualify many heirlooms as very productive, and honestly don't feel the need for hybrids. Last year I had an average of 7kg per one truss tomato on my balcony, which I think is a respectable amount. I know Florence is massively hot in the summer however, so it could be the difference in pollination capability (where heirlooms indeed don't shine).
