How to Save Seeds
Tomatoes are self pollinating, so separate by 50ft is sufficient. Harvest tomatoes when ripe and you can even let them set for a week or so before saving seeds. Once you are ready to harvest simply cut in half scoop out seeds and pulp into a mason jar of water for fermenting. Then seal jar with a lid and place in and warm place out of direct sunlight. After 5 to 7 days of fermenting pour out seeds floating on top of the water along with mold and then pour rest of the good seeds, on the bottom, over a fine mess strainer to catch them. Dry well in fine mesh or paper towels but turn often so they don't stick to paper.

Georgia Blush Tomato is awesome
I grew the tomato from seed, starting in January here in Florida. By March 1, the plants were ready to go in the ground. By June 1, I was already getting tomatoes. They are a beautiful rosy pink color, darkening as they get older. They are unblemished and just beautiful to look at. But the best thing about them is the TASTE. We have other tomatoes, but this one, in my opinion tastes like the vine ripe tomato of my childhood and is the best of all we grow. The flavor is somewhat bold, without being tart. It makes a great tomato sandwich or just to eat by itself. When you slice it, the juice doesn't fall out like so many tomatoes. The only difficulty with this tomato is deciding when it is ripe enough to pick because it doesn't get red. It stays rosy.
