: : : I'm growing tomotoes in the 11 plant system. They are growing like crazy. Should I trim back the stems and leaves that don't have blooms. Thanks Tim

: : Personally, I wouldn't trim anything.
: : Especially not till after they started producing fruit.
: : Maybe someone else has some input on this?
: : ANyone else??

: Thanks for the imput. My tomotoes are producing fruit.

I once saw somewhere there was a diagram of which parts are safe to prune/trim, but I think I also remember Ron saying something about not trimming them...I'm not sure, I'll see if I can find that diagram, but maybe Ron can jump in and give some input into this subject..I know he grows bunches of tomato plants.
