Now I can see everything perfectly ..! I should have resolved in this way:

- (CGFloat)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView heightForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath;
{
     NSString *comment = [[self.objects objectAtIndex:[indexPath row]] objectForKey:(@"Testo")];
     CGFloat whidt =  300;
     UIFont *FONT = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:11];
     NSAttributedString *attributedText =[[NSAttributedString alloc]  initWithString:comment  attributes:@  {      NSFontAttributeName: FONT }];
      CGRect rect = [attributedText boundingRectWithSize:(CGSize){whidt, MAXFLOAT}
                                           options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin
                                           context:nil];
     CGSize size = rect.size;
      return size.height +50; 
     }

 - (FFCustomCellTimeline *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath object:(PFObject *)object {

     FFCustomCellTimeline *cell = (FFCustomCellTimeline * )[self.tableView     dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:@"Cell"];
      if (!cell) {
          cell = [[FFCustomCellTimeline alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:@"Cell"];
       }

       NSString *text = [object objectForKey:(@"Testo")];
      CGSize constraint = CGSizeMake(300 , 20000.0f);
      UIFont *FONT = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:11];
       CGSize size = [text boundingRectWithSize:constraint options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin attributes:@{NSFontAttributeName:FONT }context:nil].size;

       cell.FFNomeLabel.frame = CGRectMake(10, 0, 300, MAX(size.height, 54.0f) + 20.0f);
       cell.FFNomeLabel.numberOfLines = 0;
       cell.FFNomeLabel.lineBreakMode = NSLineBreakByWordWrapping;
       cell.FFNomeLabel.text = text;
       cell.FFNomeLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:11];


       return cell;
    }
