Well I've pinched out some and left some so we'll see hopefully.
What an excellent idea! 'mind you, the worst pest I ever had to deal with was rabbits in my Mum's garden, especially after her Jack Russel died!...
Yes, I've never heard of it but I wonder why not? I'm tempted to pinch out a couple just to see what happens.
My Purple Magnolia tall snap peas have germinated well and are about 6" high and now I'm wondering whether to pinch out the tops to get more stems...
I think one reason why tomatoes are so popular is that they are relatively easy to grow (indoors if you don't want blight) and don't get too many...
