what is the function of the mold?
Well done
thanks for the video, easy to follow
oh, oops. I replace the water I poured off with fresh water.
I just put mine in a glass with water. Once a day I give them a good stirring, let them settle and then pour off the water and any floaters. After about 3-5 days the seeds are pretty clean so I pour off the water and spread out the seeds on a paper towel and let them dry. No mold. My germination rates are nearly 100%.
I saved some seeds from a cherry tomatoes, but the way I did it was by pulling out the seeds from the little sack instead of this method. After letting them dry for a few days, I planted them and had a nearly 100% germination rate.
However, this method seems easier for bulk quantities. Thanks a lot!
this was really helpfull thank you for that.
Very good info!
Is the mold part really necessary?
Many plant seeds can be saved simply by collecting them as they dry. Tomatoes take a bit more work. The tomato seeds are enclosed in a gel like sack that contains growth inhibitors, preventing the seeds from sprouting inside the tomato. The best way to remove this gel covering is to allow the fruits to rot and ferment. In nature this happens when the fruit falls off the plant. For seed savers, we’re going to speed up the process.
Why is the fermentation process important I really want to know because I want to try this is it safe?
Thank you love the way you Keep it simple .
I don’t usually have that happen. Just make sure you have sufficient liquid covering the seeds … cheers
Hello and thanx for your great work! I’m doing this for the first time and it’s starting to get some white mold but there is a lot of black hairy mold. Is that normal?
good job. thank you
What’s the point of fermenting them and letting them mold. Why not just rinse them off and dry them?
If I have multiple varieties of heirloom tomatoes, squash, or any other vegetable, how do I keep them from cross-pollinating and creating hybrids with the collected seeds. Is there a distance they need to be from each other? Can they be nearby without issue? Thank you!
Nice video, but I prefer to propagate with cuttings of my best plants, as they are genetic copies – unlike seeds.
Now I have just put them on a paper towel and took the membrane off.. They have grown.. Nicely I might add.. But in this process does the fermentation help the seeds last longer? Meaning for years to come?
I have a slightly cleaner and easier process. Check out my video and try it.
Just try a few test plants at first
1 Tbs Baking soda mixing with a gallon of water great for getting rid of mildew on roses and phlox,it kills mold, fungus etc, you could also try a commercial fungicide. Also since the blight is in the soil it gets on the lower leaves first and spreads upward, by removing lower leaves (under the first flowers) it allows air to circulate.
Have you tried spraying with a baking soda and water mixture? Also removing lower and excess branchs help.
