Default Patio tomatoes and sunlight needs

I am considering a pot of patio tomatoes on my porch. It gets
indirect light to the most part with at best dappled sunlight in late
summer. How well would the PTs do in those conditions?


Most edible fruiting plants do well in full sun and OK in 4-5 hours sun per
day. With no direct sun the chances are they will be weak and spindly and
not fruit well.
