Speaking of trying something new...just cleaned my first batch of tomato seeds with Oxi-Clean...enables you to side-step the multi-day fermentation process. Works like a charm...from tomato to seed drying tray in less than an hour...just saved a huge batch of Marianna’s Peace seeds (an AWESOME tomato if you have never grown one before)...it worked like a charm...Oxi-Clean took care of the gel in no time flat.
Whoa! That is indeed interesting! How much Oxi-Clean did you use?
Ah yes- Grandma Maggie had a way of fermenting her tomato seeds that worked great. She took the selected tomato, placed it i a jar lid in an east or south window in the kitchen. Let it sit there and do its thing, Later when the fermenting had stopped and the seeds were dry, she put them in a jar in the pantry til she started the seeds in early spring.
When she planted the young tomatoes in the garden, they were three-four inches tall. T hey always grew great and produced a bumper crop. What I do not know is what kind of tomato she planted.
