strange truss behaviour
« on: June 20, 2011, 09:38 »
I've just noticed something really weird on my tomatoes.... a couple of trusses don't just end with a flower, but have a whole new stalk growing out of the end of them, with their own leaves, sideshoots and new trusses forming - I have never seen this before  ??? My instinct tells me I should probably cut them off, but has anyone else had this and what did you do about it?

I do not know why it happens but I have seen it on some of my plants - I cut off the extra stalk so that the plants goodness can go into the main truss of tomatoes.
