Tomatoes, squeeze the juice and seeds from a ripe tomato into a small

jar
and add a little water to dilute it. Sit it aside somewhere that your
family won't find it and throw it away. Let it rot for a few days. Then
filter out the seeds and rinse them and dry on a paper towel.

I haven't done eggplant seeds.

Best regards,
Bob


Hi Bob, I saved tomato seeds before just from squeezing the tomato and
letting the seeds dry on paper towel. Why do you let it rot for a few days
in a bit of water? does it make it better/hardier?
thanks Lynn


I have just left a tomato to dry up in the green house. When I have come to
it the next year, and removed the seeds they have allways germinated. I
think it is very hard to kill tomato seeds. you can even plant the whole
thing dry skin as well, they will germinate. hope this helps you.
