No, let her grow for now, any pruning won’t come for awhile

How long should I leave it before pruning?

Depends on the variety. If it’s an indeterminate and you want a single stemmed plant pinch off the suckers when they come out where the leaf meets the stalk.

Pruning has its place in growing tomatoes, especially for disease control and prevention, but most people on the internet are far too eager to start lopping parts off a tomato plant. Nothing good is going to come from pruning that plant.

No! Let it be. Only trim 1/3 of its leaves/branches.
