Removing flowers, yet another queston on this topic????

I have some in the ground they have been in for weeks some longer than others. They are getting decent size but are still a little small in my opinion to support fruit. Should I pull the flowers on these tomatoes? Some are cherry's and I think I would leave them alone.

Thanks Dono

They are plenty big enough for starting fruit, IMO. It takes a pretty long time before the small fruit reach any significant size, and by then the plant will be approaching huge barring problems.

Thanks THZ that is what I was thinking just looking for a second opinion.

They are growing fast well some of them are. A lot of them have yellowing of the leaves even in some case which, dare I say, looks like disease.

Please no disease this year. Pretty please and thank you.
