No, those are your future tomatos...dig a largish hole, lay the tomato plant on its side in the hole and backfill with dirt. Provide a support for the plant to grow against (tomato cage or stake or spiral) as the plant with grow quite largeHelpful Reply -

No, the flowers are the tomatoes. You do want to pinch the suckers off though. The are the little shoota that comes up in the V of the vine.Helpful Reply -
