What was your seed source?

I'm asking because Chocolate Stripes is a regular leaf plant and your plant leaves look like they are a potato leaf tomato.

I usually do not prune.

Thanks Cindy! I planted the Chocolate Stripes close to the stupice variety so I may have mixed them up in my mind. Thanks for catching that. I will change it in my question. So you don't prune tomatoes at all?

I only prune the suckers that get too far away from the main plant and into the path. To prune or not to prune has been debated for many, many decades.

I wouln't prune Stupice since it only grows to 4'.

Hi Linda. Thanks for the advice. I read they grow between 4-8'. They've never grown bigger than 4' for you?

The stem on the left is the main leader, the oldest and has a flower cluster. Cut the one on the right off.

Thanks so much Kevin :-)
