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?
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

My Roma tomato plants have some leaves with a white/silver shading. Is this normal? And what do I do about them?
I planted 5 Roma tomatoes 4 weeks ago in containers on my deck in full sun. They are now approaching 6 ft tall with no sign of flowers. They did flower 2 weeks ago, but still no sign of anything. Do I prune? I continue to secure them to stakes...but they keep on growing like crazy! I think they're mutant.
