Default Tomatoes still flowering

I still have 2 greenhouses full of ripening tomatoes, but the
plants all seem to be busy flowering again. Not just one or
two varieties, but all 10 or so varieties are at it!
Is it just the odd late summer we've been having confusing the
poor things? And is it worth letting them flower, or should I
be snipping them back to encourage the green fruit to ripen on
the vine?
I don't remember having such vigorous growth at this time of
year before!


Indeed. And as I haven't watered them either the fact they've got
about 15 new tomatoes on is pretty impressive.
So are they good for chutney?
