Many summer residents periodically pick off the lower leaves on tomato bushes.

This procedure has a positive effect on the condition of the garden crop, increasing the chances of a good harvest.

In most cases, the collected tomato tops are simply thrown away.

This approach is entirely justified if the leaf blades are damaged by something.

But if there are no signs of any diseases on the green part of the plant, then such a mass should be left.
