My tomatoes have been putting on a lot of growth in the last few weeks. The image above is from 2 weeks ago when I added some bamboo supports for the cordons. Below are the same plants today.
Most of the plants now have 3 or 4 trusses so I have nipped out the growing tip to force all the plant energy into fruit production. I continue to feed the plants every 2 weeks with a liquid tomato feed. I also have removed the lowest leaves near the ground to aid air circulation and to make watering easier.
It is a little difficult to see but my pepper plants are in front of the tomatoes in the bed. The fruit has started to appear on the peppers in the last few weeks. I also use the same tomato feed on the peppers every 2 weeks.
