Now that the vegetables do their own mulching, weeding is minimal, and harvesting takes increasing time, it's easy to forget everyday maintenance, especially on plants like tomatoes that benefit from regular attention.
Indeterminate tomatoes will keep growing, even as they ripen fruits on lower branches. Check them weekly, pruning excess branches and tying up new growth. This regular maintenance will keep the plants from snapping or bending in the wind, and make harvesting much easier.
