Tomato Plant Advice

hi guys, mind if i ask a few Tomato-y questions?

i was wondering should i pinch out the growing tips on my tomato plants? ( i let them branch so there's quite a few) or perhaps i should even prune off the excess growth back to the last decent sized tomato? (they have loads of green toms that don't seem to be ripening) they are still producing flowers too should i be taking those off?

in advance

 

I would HB, especially the flowers, they won't come to much at this end of the year, concentrate on what you've got & keep feeding them

 

ah cheers Zigs should i just take off the tip or can i take off a decent bit (like say 9 or 10 inch) its got quite a bit of growth at the top that's got no tomatoes on?

 

You could do, also take some of the leaves off to let the sun get at the fruit, they need warmth to ripen.

Seen some tomato plants stripped of all the spare branches and the leaves seemed a bit drastic though

 

thank you Zigs i wouldn't be brave enough to strip the whole plant like that but i'll sure thin them out...tops, leaves & flowers beware! im off out to get snipping!

thanks again
