How to Save Seeds
Tomatoes are self-pollinating, so separating varieties by approximately 50 feet is generally sufficient for maintaining seed purity.
Harvest tomatoes when fully ripe and allow them to sit for several days if desired before seed processing.
Cut fruits in half and scoop the seeds and pulp into a mason jar with a small amount of water for fermentation. Seal loosely and place the jar in a warm location away from direct sunlight.
After 5 to 7 days, remove floating seeds and mold from the top. Pour the remaining healthy seeds through a fine mesh strainer and dry thoroughly on screens or paper towels, turning seeds regularly to prevent sticking.
