"Seedless Tomatoes"
Browsing through a clipart.binaries newsgroup
last evening I spotted an illustration of a "seedless tomato." Has anyone tried them and what were/are the results? Also what was the source? Thank you. John ========================== |

Many garden varieties do not come true from seed and have to be propagated vegetatively. And of course we are used to eating both seedless grapes and seedless bananas. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |

Also what was the source? Thank you. John ========================== Tomato is an annual. They can be made to produce seedless fruits by treating with some of the synthetic auxins. This causes the fruit to develop without pollination. However, several of the modern vars. are almost seedless and the trouble to avoid pollination would seem to be pointless. Seedless perennials are easily propagated by grafts or cuttings etc. Best Wishes Brian |
