In the UK it’s best to sow tomatoes between february and april. If you don’t have a greenhouse then delay sowing until april. Many people make the mistake of sowing too early which can result in tall straggly plants.

Yes you can.Make sure it’s organic.
1..Cut the tomato in half,and squeze out the seed’s in something like a pint jar.Then add a ittle water..don’t use tap..use water from the store.
2…Let it sit for 3-7 day’s.You will start to see mold on top..that’s good.you need that to dissolve the gel on the seed’s.
3…After you let it sit and see it rot.Take and dump it in a small strainer.Run water over them real good until clean.
Dry on coffee filter’s for up to 2 weeks.Any question’s,pm me.

Yes – the seedlings will certainly have a similar growth rate to the parent plant. So if you have sown a dwarf bush variety for example, then the seedlings will be fairly small. They might need a little more heat to get them going so it would be worth bringing them indoors to a bright windowsill until they have grown a bit more.

yes i washed them first, they did sprout but the sprouts are really small..about the size of 1 inch..does the sprout size depend on the type of tomato planted? i didnt start them indoor, there are about 7 seeds i planted in a potting soil and placed them outside with temperature about 35-40 degrees celcius..they look healthy but i am worried about the size because i did plant watermelons and honeydew melons and know how the first sprouts look like. should i re plant them with new seeds?

Tomatoes enclose their seed in a jelly like substance that contains growth inhibitors, to prevent the seed germinating inside the tomato. If you use seed from a tomato then you should wash them thoroughly first to remove this jelly so that they can germinate. To be honest – it’s more effort than it is worth. You really are better off buying the seeds.

do i have to buy the seeds? can’t i use the seeds in a tomato?

thompsonmorgan November 16, 2012 at 10:49 pm

Ah – that may make a difference. Tomatoes enclose their seed in a jelly like substance that contains inhibitors, to prevent the seed germinating inside the tomato. If you use seed from a tomato then you should wash them first to remove this jelly so that they can germinate.
