1st Tomatoes on plants- Article on Pruning

Tomato production has been slower this year with our cooler spring. I do have 3 tomatoes that
have fruit set on the plants. The varieties areOlpaka, Cheokee Purple,Brandywine, Stupice, and Bloody Butcher. These three are potato leaf varieties. The majority of my other varieties have flowers but not tomatoes. One technique that I am doing is giving the vine a small shake each day. All my tomatoes are now
tied to their stakes so that giving a small nudge to the stake will move each of the flower blossoms.
Pruning is a very important aspect of your future tomato success. I remove all the bottom leaves
that come in contact with the ground. I also have removed all of the suckers that appear below the
1st blossom set. I may allow 1 sucker to develop above the 1st flower especially on my smaller tomatoes. If you want some good information on pruning Google this website: Taunton Prune Tomatoes. There is a great article with illustrations and also a good video.

1st Tomato Blossom

On June 15th I have my 1st tomato blossom. It is on the Brandywine Red. This week many of the
tomatoes should start flowering. This year the stems are very stout. This can be attributed to the
cool weather and wind the past few weeks. I put in an additional bamboo cane to support the plants. I will start tying the main stem to the bamboo cane next weekend. I hope that each of you have escaped the bad weather the past few weeks.
