I'm sorry, there must be a technical term for this, but for tomatoes that continue growing at the end of the truss I'm wondering when or if you normally stop them, and if it is bad for the plant?
I have one growing up a string, variety as yet unknown because it comes from a mixed pack, that cannot be left to grow on this way because of lack of space. Is it best to cut off the growing tip as soon as it is obvious, or wait for the fruit to set? And how much do I leave - one leaf, nothing? With grape vines I always cut back to one leaf beyond the bunch of grapes, perhaps these kinds of tomatoes would do well treated the same way?!
I think I usually just remove everything beyond the fruit, and blight aside, tomatoes seem to be pretty robust!

Funnily enough I was looking up this very subject recently. One or two of my toms are sprouting beyond their formed trusses. The consensus is ambiguous, most recommend chopping off the extra growth merely to concentrate the energy to the fruit but others said leave it to grow and flower to see what happens. Pays yer money takes yer choice. I'm veering towards chopping.

I've seen it but can't remember what I did. PP is it a big, beefsteak type tomato because I think they are prone to misbehaving - like forking (bifurcation) and producing megablooms.

I’ve had a few varieties do that. I cut them off.
