If you plant that many seeds... You will need a Catsup factory next fall LOL. Btw javalily, review Homesteadacre's other videos. You will find one where they were repairing their well. Beyond that... Get the bigger picture. There is a good chance there won't be any tap water or grocery stores in a couple of years. These folks are preparing for that possible future, by saving these seeds. ARE YOU PREPARING??? Or will you starve, flouride free?

One person said that after cleaning the seeds with a strainer, he temporarily mixes the seeds back into a clean bowl of water and removes any seeds that float to the top (as they are non-viable). Do you know if this is correct?

Awesome video! Thank you for posting this. I guess I'm a visual learner, because I felt so overwhelmed reading the steps to saving seeds in a gardening book, but watching you do it, it's quite simple.
do they need to be stored in the fridge or can they just be left in a paper evelope?

Any cool, dry place should be fine. :-)

What is the added benefit of letting it sit in the jar for several days? If you are going to rinse all the gel off when you clean them afterwards anyway, why not just go directly from removing the pulp, to straining and drying? Just seems like a labour-intensive extra step with no real purpose to let them sit in the jar, deal with mold, etc.

The gel is dissolved by the fermenting process and is already gone when I rinse the seeds. Its the little bits of "meat" from the tomatoes that I'm rinsing off afterwords. It would take longer to let that ferment away. Fermenting the seeds also helps to kill off many of the diseases that could hurt your plants the next year.
