Hi, everybody,

This is the first year I've grown tomatoes. I'm in Austin, Zone 8b.

They seem to be doing very well. Stems, roots, and leaves all look healthy.
They grow 3 - 4" taller, and much wider each week. But a few days ago,
*boom*, they all bloomed profusely. They're only two feet tall, determinate
and indeterminate alike.

From Googling the newsgroup, I've guessed the problem is the heat. We just
recently went from 70's to high 80's. My question is, would it be better to
nip off the blooms and let the plant continue growing, or just let them do
as they please? It isn't going to get any cooler until October!

I'm growing Yellow Pear, Red Robin, Boxcar Willie, Supersweet 100, and
Microtoms (they are only 7" tall, and blooming) if it matters.

Thanks!
