Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I goofed and planted my tomatoes too closely this year. They
are growing by leaps and bounds (in wire tomato cages)
nearly 5' tall! Can I prune off some the large stems and if
so should I cut them off about halfway? I don't want to harm
the plants...just thought they could use some "breathing
room" though.

I have three varieties: Rutgers, Roma and Cherry. They are
just starting to produce small fruits.

TIA,
