roma tomatoes

Question

Do roma tomatoes need to have the side shoots pinched out like most others, or do you leave them to form a bush? Where can I find info on pinching out for all types of tomato?

Answer 1

Whether or not to pinch out suckers is actually a subject open to debate. Some people think it should be done, some think it shouldn't. You might actually prune some and not others, and compare results. This article has information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/vegetables/tomato/should-you-prune-tomato-plants.htm
