good idea. that's a lot of excess stem/foliage. I'm doing sq ft and my 2 ft. brandywine is putting out 9 big flowers per cluster after only 3 weeks since transplanting. Her main stem is already as wide as a quarter from removing suckers daily.
Beautiful looking tomato's. I can't wait until it stops raining so I can transplant mine. I have to fix the soil a lil first. Just started seeds Jan 21. 2009 (Beefsteak) I just moved into my house 5 months ago I wish I would have prepared the soil back then but it's ok. Happy Planting.
do you get a lower yeild from the bw versus say an early girl or other hybridthis is my first year with old varieties and they dont have the crop size of the new ones.
Early girls are 4 oz. BW's are 1 to 2 lbs. so you need 4 to 8 EG's to equal 1 BW. Plus EG's have hardly no taste compared to BW's. If your weather is hot then blooms wont set right, when it gets about 80 during the day and 65 at night they will take off. We got 150 lbs. off each BW last year.

How many plants per trellis/support. I read you had "We got 150 lbs. off each BW last year"
Looks like I'll be needing more structural support for that BW. Especially if each BW tomato fruit weighs 1- 2 lbs.
