As per title. Got 4 months left in the season and my tomato already outgrew the 1.9m A frame trellis I’ve built.
I’ve stopped pruning new suckers and will let it grow multiple tops to spread horizontally, however I still expect that I will have to train it to run at least 5-6m somewhere…
Based in Tasmania.

You could top it (cut the tops off where it grows taller than where you want it). Or, you could get crazy and tie some string between your trellis and that fencing over your garage and let it grow along that.
If it’s indeterminate…
Just keep trimming it, you want all the tomatoes that you can get, and less vegetation.
Let it keep growing up. It will eventually fall over and start growing towards the ground.
