How to Prune Tomato Plants?


Last year was my first year as a gardener. I grew my tomatoes up a wire
(4" x 4") trellis, but didn't trim off anything as it was growing. I did
get some tomatoes, but not nearly as many as I think I should have.

I gather this is because I didn't do any pruning. My question is,
exactly how am I supposed to prune tomato plants? That which branches do
I cut off, and how many, etc. This year I'm growing several tomato
plants inside those conical wire frame supports, and a few others up
strings hung down from a wooden frame. I started with small Home Depot
plants which are now 1 to 2' high.

Thanks!
