  • Marmande Toms

    Hello to all, first post.

    The main stem of my Marmande toms have split in to four main growing stems (not sideshoots) after producing the first flower stem. Is this normal and do I just let all four new stems grow or do I pinch all but one out?

    TIA, photo attached for clarification

    It is a semi-bush type tomato, so I would leave them on.

      We grew these for the first time last year- and were told not to pinch them out.
      It's looking very healthy!

      Oh- and welcome to the Vine!

        Whoops I've been pinching mine out to keep to a single stem, have I made a big mistake or doesn't it matter?

          I'd just leave them now
          ( we did a bit of both last year cos they got a bit too wide for our planting distances!!)
