For Arlene

I wrote about picking out the side shoots on my tomato plants in the last post. Here's a link to a video on how to do that very thing.


And here's another.


I've been pinching out the side shoots every day. It's surprising how fast they grow.

Hope this clarifies everything, Arlene.

  4. Thank you so much for that advice and the 2 videos really helped me clear up which bits need to be taken off the plant. I appreciate your help very much. Thanks again for your excellent help! Arlene from NJ (US)
