While cooking tea last night I saved a few seeds from one of the baby plum tomatoes. I did nothing to them but put them to dry on a piece of kitchen paper and this morning I intend to pick them off the paper and sow them. Some years I just leave them on the paper and sow them that way. I've done this for years with great success and it will be nice to see how well these do. They will stay on the bedroom windowsill until late May when I can get them hardened off and planted in a really warm sheltered spot in the garden. They soon catch up with plants that have been sown earlier and I won't be sowing my seeds too early from now on. Windowsill space is at a premium at this time of year and I am hoping to move some seedlings into the mini greenhouse to harden off in the next few weeks.
My mam, bless her, saved all her capsicum peppers that she ate last year. I'll be needing an oversized poly tunnel! I've never tried it with tomato seeds. x
