| I was given some tomato seedlings that are already beginning to flower. I want to transplant them into my garden, but should I pinch off the flowers first? |

| I would. |

| I would not. If the plant cannot support them, will abort them itself. Some of my plants (planted out 3 weeks ago) have buds/flowers (sungold, Bloody Butcher ...) They are about 10" tall. I leave them alone. After all, I grow them for fruits not foliage. So there are different schools of gardening style and practice. |
