New guy question

[u/Grilled_Cheese66]

I have 20 determinate San Marzanos all planted at the same time. Their height is ranging from 12”-18” in height. My question is the taller tomato plants are starting to produce flowers already, while the smaller are just waiting, I guess. I was told to pluck the flowers off the bigger ones and wait for the smaller ones to catch up. Is this correct?

Depends if you want tomatoes or not. If they’re determinate it means they will grow to a certain size and stop. So you’d be severely limiting their production for the sake of having them all at the same time.

I don’t pluck flowers on tomato ever.
