click fraud protection

There are fans all do not as advised. They checked and collected seeds from hybrids of tomatoes and everything was fine. Harvest smaller, smaller fruit, like everything. These experiences may encourage you to try to do the same. It is not necessary, I tell you how I did it.

So, here is my experience.

super seeds

I have a friend who rarely see each other. And here in the conversation it became clear that last year she did not carry on a store bought tomatoes. All were tasteless. And a grandmother took crimson, large and oh-very tasty.

It has no land, villa sold and reflex remained. I could not resist, brought together such wonderful seeds. Retained. And he gave me. And I have shared with my girlfriend.

In short, we have increased the average size pear-shaped tomatoes kislyuschie. One to one! The tomato all gone. Nothing to do with crimson large flattened parents.

Mix up it was not what these seeds have been familiar only. She has not been able to believe that this could be: sour another form of the nicest tomatoes.

self-seeding

In the past year I have a lot of self-seeding tomatoes risen around the vegetable garden. Removed as weeds. We must also make it clear that before last year I have an abundance of different hybrids, grades one, two and miscalculated.

Of course, I could not resist a few self-seeding strong left. Normal turned too. And some... sour rare.

Something no longer want to run up. Not so much time and effort to carry out dubious experiments.

Aunt seeds Lidin

I've got the authority - Aunt Lida. My first teacher. Up to 39 years, she did not know what land. She persuaded to take the land. And so it began. It was over 30 years ago. She bought books and studied them, all made with precision. Plot her model.

So my first tomato seeds were collected experimental aunt Lida with its plot. I very much appreciate and value. But as it turned out, hybrids Aunt Lida did not seem to be something special. She collected the seeds from them without a second thought.

And one of its seeds grown cherry aubergine color. She could not believe that it happens.

Those same aunt Lidin cherry tomatoes, aubergine color unexpectedly

This year I purchased a bag from one bush tomato gave purple fruitlets. I do not know yet whether good or bad. One thing I realized: I do not want surprises!
