My First Cowlick Brandywine

FILMNET · July 18, 2010

This is my first Cowlick plant with potato leafs i have grown , on the bottom of the 5ft plant are these 9+ tomatoes? Should i leave them on ? or will they make the new ones small. Maybe 2 weeks before there are red.

If they were mine, I would leave them. JMO Nice picture of a cluster of tomatoes.

Would think you would have somewhat smaller tomatoes overall, but more total yield in weight?

I'm thinking "a bird in the hand". Go with what you get.

It is so tight in there now,its jammed in there. I actually have small hands, so my with thumb and last finger I can just reach the other side. its so green also i have been taking leaves off around it so more sun can get there. No sigh of blushing at all. luckily some new fruit is coming out above. I have 1 more Berkley which broke in half, i put in in huge tub/pot. its growong slow but has new flowers Saturday. And another plant next door at a neighbors, planted same time, less sun, no fruit yet.
