60 Seconds or Sow: Identifying Tomato Suckers for Pruning
In 60 seconds or so... I show you how to identify tomato 'suckers' in the joints of leaf branches and the main growing tomato production stem. This video show you how to find the tomato 'suckers'. Suckers will actually grow into main stems and produce flowers, tomatoes and more suckers. You prune them to manage the size of the plant.
