My daughter (Emily 4 ) planted a Mr stripey in May, then sort of toppled on it. I left it for a while and it didnt produce any fruit, I said if it didnt produce anything the next day I was pulling it LOL. And it did. I left it , and most of the fruit had BER , and it was just getting in the way by the way it was growing (b.c she fell on it, the branches were growing weird) anyways, I ended just lopping it off at the base( about 2 weeks ago), thinking that would be enough, I didnt want to pull , in case the roots where near another of my toms.

Well after the past 3 days of rain, I finnally got outside to look things over, wouldnt you know that stupid plant is almost 3 ft tall. Looks to be a pretty determined plant I have here.....
