"davek" wrote in message ... "jim" wrote in message ... is it possible to grow tomato plants from seeds taken directly from a tin of peeled plum tomatoes? Maybe not, but reminds me that sewage farms exhibit wondrous displays of tomato plants every summer. Shows how indigistible the seeds are. Davek. ******* My father, a keen gardener always averred that tomato seeds that have done the journey through a gut, - a human gut preferably in his case, will produce excellent tomatoes. I have grown tomatoes all my life but haven't experimented in that fashion. By the way, I believe "they" are trying bring find the and bring back the old breeds that were known for their better sweetness. Excluding the "cherry tomatoes". - which, in passing , I think have lost their original sweetness and I believe this is maybe due to the factory system culture which demands perfect shape and colour for supermarkets, but it has been at the expense of sweetness and That breed has now a more insipid taste .
