Missouri pruning american tomatoes

MrBig46 · March 23, 2013

Dear friends. I did not plant american varietes of tomatoes never. I planted one american variete Beefmaster VFN last year. I have seeds these american heirloom varietes, which I want to plant this year: Brandywine Red, Brandywine Black, Delicious, Cherokee Purple, Black Trufle and Beefsteak. I ussualy plant indeterminant varietes on convolutes and use simple pruning. This metod I used for planting my Beefmaster, but it dont acquited me.
I too combined simple pruning (two suckers) and missouring (one sucker) and it (I think) was better. And now my questions:
1.Do you use missouri pruning, when you planted for exlample Brandywine?
2.How do you do (each)?
3.Do you think, that missourin pruning is better (than simple) for beefsteak tomatoes?
4.How many flowers do you leaves on the cluster?
Thank you.
