Claudia said:When I saved seeds I did the stir method. They should be done now and ready to rinse & dry.
robynanne said:I didn't put air holes in my plastic cover. I keep forgetting about the seeds though.. I have to go check them. It's only been 2 days.
BTW, I posted pictures of the tomatoes on FB and the people there keep telling me they are roma tomatoes. That'd be fine.. but the plant is over 8 feet tall and still growing and flowering. It is clearly not determinant. That means they couldn't possibly be roma, right? (Plus even Burpee isn't bad enough to sell roma seeds in a grape-like tomato name, right?)
Is there an indeterminate roma variety?
BetNC said:Fortunately, the plant I'm saving seeds from is still producing, so I'm going to try AGAIN!! And the plant is a determinate dwarf, OP heirloom. . . so it'll breed true from these seeds (well, maybe not THESE abused seeds. . . getting no plant isn't breeding true, eh??)
THIS time differences: 2-3 tbs water instead of a swimming pool ; 1-2 days max; no stirring.
The seeds DID kinda stick to the paper plate, but were easily dislodged by a finger poke .
Since it isn't a hybrid issue, I guess I shouldn't have asked here. . . . please forgive me.

Bonehead said:This hybrid was a disappointment, and from the name I was hoping it was a keeper. Really nice shape and size, no blemishes or other appearance issues. ....But...really bland. Tastes just like something one would get at the grocery store in mid-winter.
