| Hey everybody I was just curious about how big some of you let your indeterminate plants get before you let them start setting fruit. |

| I take all buds and blossoms off my indet and det seedlings after hardening them off and setting them outside at 6-9 inches. The blossom cycle is abuot two weeks so I would not see blossoms again until then. In the intervening time all energy produced from the plants will go into developing stems and foliage and a better root system, the vegetative cycle, instead of energy being shunted to the sexual cycle of blossoms and fruit set.

| Same for me. Once they are transplanted to their final growing place, any blooms and/or fruit that develop are left on the plant. Dave |
