"Determinate" or "bush" varieties are those that reach a certain plant height and then stop growing, with most fruit borne over a four to six week period.  "Indeterminate" varieties continue to grow and flower throughout the season, but have less mature fruits at any one time.  "Indeterminate Short Internode (ISI)" varieties have been developed, which combine the controlled growth habit of a "determinate" with the unlimited production potential of an "indeterminate"
