I'll top off 2 plants and see how they do against unpruned plants.

Proper supports certainly did not help my tomatoes last year (stems were intact and standing, but all leafs were shredded from the plants from high wind) ... ![]() |

I wintered over a bhut jolokia... just to have an earlier producing plant. at one point it got too cold and dropped all of its leaves. oops. I wan't sure if I killed it or not. the stem stayed green so I left it in the greenhouse for the rest of the Winter. as we got longer days it popped new growth out. it even had new aphids on it. sheesh! it is a pretty stocky looking plant at this point. You aren't going to hurt the plant by topping it.

good luck with whatever you choose to do. mine is in a 3 gallon pot . I haven't done anything special to it to keep it alive. I do put osmocote in the potting mix or toss it on top if the soil isn't "mixable" anymore.
