I was hoping someone could give me a estimate on how long it takes for a tomato plant to heal over after it has been pruned.

I checked the forums and even googled it, but I cant seem to find it anywhere.

I was just wondering because I just pruned most of the suckers on my indeterminate plants. Its going to rain tonight and I hope the chances of the plants getting diseases isn't to high. I was thinking about taking grass clippings and covering the soil underneath the plants so no dirt gets on the open wounds. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks
