Leaves on tomato trusses.
« on: May 18, 2011, 22:27 »
My Gardeners Delight tomato plants have fruit on the lower trusses, but after the last fruit the trusses have burst into lots of leafy growth.
Should I remove the leafy growth so as no energy is diverted from the fruit?

Yes, remove it, it's not that unusual and is taking nutrients from you precious crop.
