Plants grown from their seeds are unpredictable at best, and are typically disappointing. The best tomatoes to use for saving and propagating seeds are heirloom varieties.
Herein,Do you need to dry out tomato seeds?
It’s possible a mutant variety out there won’t, but don’t count on that making it to the commercial scene (unless they only sell it as plants propagated from cuttings). No need to dry them out usually, and large varieties of tomato will grow exceptionally well with the right conditions.
Also question is,Can a tomato that has never been dried germinate?
Tomato seeds that have never been dried can germinate. I’ve tried it. Tomatoes can actually germinate inside the fruit, sometimes (wherein the fruit is still good to eat, at that). I’ve read that the gel sacks around the seeds are supposed to inhibit germination. You may have greater success if you remove the sacks.
Thereof,What vitamins are in canned tomatoes?
Sun-dried tomatoes are much richer in vitamin C, containing 39 milligrams per 100 grams. Crushed, canned tomatoes and tomato juice contain smaller amounts, respectively contributing 9 and 18 milligrams of vitamin C to your daily intake.
Can you grow tomato seeds from a tomato plant?
Under the right circumstances, these seeds can grow into tomato plants for next year’s garden. So this summer, before you eat the last fresh tomato from the vine, think about using it to start plants for your garden. The seeds from tomatoes are ready to germinate almost before the tomatoes are ripe.
