Jim - I heard recently that tomato seeds are supposed to be fermented prior to planting. Have you found that to be true? If so, how do you ferment them? (I'm very inexperienced when it comes to tomatoes since I don't particularly like the taste of fresh tomatoes...although I'm trying to make myself like them.)


Rick - good idea! Personally, I just put my seeds in a paper bag, but that does take up a bit of space, so I only use it for certain seed types. For my daylily seeds, they all go in a recycled K-cup that I've cleaned out and washed because as many as 30 seeds could probably fit along the bottom without any having to stack on top of each other. They dry out nicely that way, they fit well in egg cartons (that I use as trays to hold 12 k-cups), and it eases my conscience about the K-cup waste, so I'll probably keep that method. I might replace my paper bag method with the envelopes, though. If not, at least it's a really good idea that I can pass along to others if someone ever asks.
