First garden project so we didn’t know quite what to expect; thinking we should have given them a little more space. They’ve completely grown over the basil and in the past 2 days shot out of the netting. It’s exciting they’re doing so well though.

Do you remove the suckers? If done diligently the plants tend to only grow in length and stay more manageable. Nice plant in any way!
Also, what variety is it?
We didn’t prune anything. I would feel bad about snipping it now, it’s already flowering 😢
And they’re romas for sauce.
I learnt to only leave on growth bud. Give it a try on your next grow! It’s supposed to both make the plant more manageable and productive.
It’s never to late to trim back. I know it can be a tragedy it feels to reduce or cut back something you managed to grow.
But, if you won’t use all the tomatoes and it’s growing wildly out of place it’s fine to trim it.
It will grow again and the plant won’t blame you for it.
