Tomato Growth Habits:
- Determinate (DET) bush tomatos that reach a certain height and then stop growing. Short cage ripens in 4 to 6 weeks.
- Indeterminate (IND) vining varietys that continue to grow and flower untill killed by frost. Can grow over 6 feet tall and require tall cages or trekkises to climb. Fruits mature over a long period of time. Should prune off tops 6 weeks before first frost to make plants put energy into growing and ripening fruits already growing! Season long yields with individual tomatos.
