ALWAYS Pinch-Off the suckers! (If you missed one thats become several trusses you can root them in moist soil for more plants)
You want to prune to a central stem and then support that stem with clips clipped to a vertical nylon twine. You want to clip just under a leaf truss or flower truss.
You also should prune out the lower leaves as the plant grows AND any leaves that obscure the Tomatoes and prevent sun from kissing them. You want airflow around the plants especially indoors.
Once your plants have set fruit you'll want to increase your dose of Potassium and lower your Nitrogen input a bit for better fruit production vs. vegetative growth.
