Thanks for all the helpful replies. Sorry that I didn't mention that I live
near Charleston SC, so I guess they need the shade and are in an OK place. I
think I'm just going to let them grow and see how tall they get and use a
step ladder to pick the fruit.
Thanks again,
Michael

Michael, where do you live? If you're in Minnesota "full sun" is different
than it is in Mississippi, for example! In hot climates, tomatoes appreciate
some shade in the afternoon. Especially if they are in containers.
It's not bad for your plants to be so tall....it's their nature to grow that
tall. As long as they aren't spindly from lack of light (and I don't think
so, since you've said they are producing lots of fruit), you can rest easy I
would think.
