beautiful harvest pictures.
BTW, anyone offer good suggestions on saving cherry tomatoe seeds? Any tips very appreciated. So tiny. But mu cherry tomatoes are so delicious I really would love to replant.
Yes I save them the way my Dad did. Squeeze out onto a paper towel. Spread if you can. Let dry on a windowsill. Write the variety on the towel. fold up and put in a small envelope and seal. I keep them through the winter in our attached garage (lower Michigan). for planting, just tear off bits of the towel - single ply - and plant with the paper.
If only saving a small amount, smear the juice and seeds onto a paper towel and let dry. If saving a large amount, squeeze the juice and seeds into a bowl. You can ferment them for a few days to separate the seeds from the pulp, or mix in a tiny bit of Oxyclean and let sit for 30 minutes. Either way, rinse afterward using a fine-mesh strainer, then spread the seeds on a plate and let dry.
Make sure you label them! If you have more than one variety drying at a time, label them before setting them out to dry. I still keep finding paper plates or little baggies filled with unlabelled seeds, because I assumed I’d remember which was which.
Roma tomatoes would be a better choice.
