Growing Tomatoes from your own Seed

I'm growing my own tomatoes again this year, but this time I've saved my own seed from last year. My initial fear was that the seed would not breed true, but I needn't have worried, as the plants and fruit were exactly the same as last years crop - and just as sweet and tasty!

This year I found many volunteer tomato plants growing. I separated them and replanted them. They are growing well. I am waiting to see what kind of tomatoes they produce.

@erra404 That's an excellent idea. I hope you are pleasantly surprised at what kind of tomatoes you get to eat.

E-GAD!!! i remember you i loved watching your in the past. You are the one with the big black compost bin, and at the bottom is a opening and you take a shovel and scoop it out, and the one that popped a cherry in your mouth and said DELICIOUS. Wow i found you again. subscribed

Beautiful tomatoes! So big and so many!

Thanks - they keep bashing me on the head whenever I go in the greenhouse now, as I never stop them at 5 trusses!

Great video. I've never tried it because I just assumed they would revert to some other type like apples etc. Thinking about it I should have known better because I used to see loads of healthy tomato plants in the spoil heaps at the back of a local sewage works (not something to think about too long!!)

You've done a great job to have grown such a high yielding crop in the relatively small pots. It goes to show what everyone could do on their balcony or patio. Just need the sun!
