I live in Boulder, CO, and my Early Girl Improved (planted in late May) is
huge and dripping with green tomatoes. However, as August approaches, the
plant seems to produce more and more green fruit, with no signs of any of
them ripening. Should I begin to prune flowers or leaves off of the plant
to
focus its energies on ripening the fruit?

Cheers,
Stephen
Do nothing to the plant now, much too late. Next year if you want to prune
just pinch the suckers off before they get 1 inch. In fact you can root the
suckers for a later crop of ripe tomatoes or a good crop of green tomatoes.
