@jennlamaye Those are so good. I’ve got a few started. I saved a few seeds last year and they are up now.

@jennlamaye Jenn, The tomato seeds I saved I just squeezed the β€œ Green Goo” with the seeds into a tall glass. Put water in it and swirled it around. Most of the seeds sunk and the goo floated. I skimmed it off. Washed the seeds in a little strainer then scattered them on a piece of tablet writing paper. Didn’t stick as bad as towel. Dried them a week at least then stored them. They germinated just fine from year to year. I use wet paper towel/zip bag trick to germinate. Tom. πŸ…πŸ…πŸ…πŸ€πŸ‘
