Hi all,

I was planning on growing some tomatoes next year.

What is the difference between the tomato seeds that i take out of a
supermarket bought tomato and ready packaged tomato seeds.

Would it make any difference in yield between the two different type of
seeds. Ie taking seed out myself from a ripe tomato, or a ready bought
packet?

thanks in advnace.

For your main crop use seeds supplied by a garden supply source---you
can sort of depend on getting tomatoes of the variety chosen. But,
for fun, try some of the seeds that you take from supermarket
tomatoes---see what tomatoes you get, you may, or may not, be
pleasantly surprised. Gardening should also include a growth of
knowledge and be fun.
