Hi all,
I'm new to growing tomatoes and I have a question on pruning.
These plants are Husky cherry tomatoes and Cherry 100 tomatoes. When is
a good time to start pruning.
These started a little late and are about 3' tall. I see 2 have 2
stems. I have yet to look for suckers.
Right now they have started flowering and 2 have some fruit. Whets a
good height for these guys.
From what I can gather these are indeterminate plants.
Any insight is appreciated.

IIRC, no difference was found in crop production between pruned and
unpruned tomato plants.
I just get rid of anything that is dead or that is seriously crowding out
the fruits. I never follow a plan and I get hundreds of tomatoes every
summer. I leave the suckers on too--just push the extra branches back into
the cages. More tomatoes for me!
