Thanks! They are still continuing blooming and growing fruits. I seldom removed the smaller/weaker shoots because some articles mention Bush Early Girl tomato is determinate. Each tomato tree has 4~ 6 branches now,

and fruits spread onto each branches. Today I counted that the best tree has produced just more than 20 tomatoes. The distance between every two adjacent trees is too small, so their branches and leaves touch each other very badly. The branches became heavier and heavier with the growing of fruits, so they bent down and nearly touched ground. I spent time to tie the branches to different poles again today. I also removed many older tomato leaves today. Hope the new baby tomatoes will have enough time to ripen in the short hot/warm season. If they can not ripen eventually, then it's a good idea to cut off the new shoots now.
