Since I realised you could root tomato sideshoots in water then re-pot to make full tomato plants I can'r stop doing it,, I have 11 original plants in the greenhouse and every shoot I take off I put in water and plant up, I hate the thought of wastage of viable plants .
   Problem is I have more tomato plants than I could shake a stick at and every time I approach friends/neighbouring plot holders with greenery in my hands they tend to make a hasty exit, and it's costing me a fortune in compost too
   I think I may need to see a phycologist if this carries on

You're not the only one.

I'm tempted to actually let the side shoots grow to a rootable size.

Never bother with the water though, straight into a pot!

I did the no water approach with a couple of really thick shoots that I missed early on DD, still in the experimental stage on the window ledge

You could have a tomato plant sale for charity if not for yourself
