It’s getting to that time of the season when I am starting to notice a bunch of tomatoes hanging from my tomato plants. I am also noticing some yellowing of the lower leaves. We have been eating a nice number of small and large tomatoes, pretty much daily. We use them for everything, but mainly salads.
I have been noticing these plants getting thicker, meaning, lots of leaves. I always knew that there comes a time to prune tomato plants, but never quite knew how, when or why.
I decided to so a search today for “pruning tomato plants” and came to a great website. They go into detail all about what I wanted to know. You can visit that website here.
After I read up on all I needed to do to my tomato plants, I went outside to prune them. I think I did a good job, but one always wonders if one took too much off. We’ll soon see, I suppose.
