If you post a photo of your plant we may be able to offer some help

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
If you can't plant it out, you'll need a much bigger container.
There does seem to be some new growth at the base though.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
@Fairygirl is quite right - they do want to be huge plants - several metres high and wide so it will be extremely pot bound.
JI no2 or 3 would be ideal, but used by itself it's very poorly draining.
I'd use a mix of about 60% JI (2 or 3) 25% multipurpose compost and 15% horticultural grit.
The new compost will have enough feed for about a month.
Then give it a feed with a general purpose feed about once every 2-3 weeks during the growing season.
You'll need a pot as big as you can manage for it.
Keep the compost moist during the summer, they get easily stressed if dry and then scale insects will take advantage.
