I have 45 tomato plants growing in my garden. 7 growing next to my garage. And one growing next to my brick walkway. I did not plant any of them. After you grow your first crop of tomatoes, let a few fall to the ground, and you don't have to worry about saving seeds. Just pick a tomato like an animal, bite it like a savage and let the seeds roll off your bare chest on to the ground. Nature rocks.
My tomatoes grow wild outside my cave entrance. I mulch them with my chest hair.
F-150 HAHAHA!!! Awesome!!
Wish I had chest hair.
Lol...
Nice
You are all so funny haha
I've been saving my seeds the same way for years. Works great and never a fail.
Excellent video! I like how you explain what you do in each step and why you do it! You're an excellent teacher, thank you!
Excellent
my grandmother use to get the seeds and jel out onto newspaper lay that out in the sun durning the day and bring them into the porch durning the night and after about a week she would move them onto the cabinet top on the back porch she also dried them out on newspaper in the shade of the back porch durning the summer which took her about two weeks she did about all of her seeds that way
Wow! Watching 5 yrs later. Today i checked my tomato seeds and discovered the mold. I thought it was bad and THREW THEM AWAY!! I wish I would of watched this sooner. Back to the drawing board! Thanks God Bless!
I had to laugh when I saw this. My kids who are adults now laughed at me for doing this. ( saving seeds)
Their joke was “ better not let mom catch you throwing that seed away! You know she saves them all..... she may never plant them..... but you better save them for her anyway!!!!”
Now they are beginning to learn why I did it! And, yes! Be sure they are completely dry before packaging them..... so that they won’t get moldy, or rot!
Keep up the good work of teaching people! Thank you.
😂👍👍💜🙏
Where does everyone then store their seed packages? I keep mine in our spare fridge.
jeff craig I haven't used this method yet. I keep seeds, but not in fridge - no need if they've been dried. I also have experimented by simply toss over-ripened on to the dirt outside my window at one end of the house... 17 tomato planta 1 year, just watered once they grew.. 5 papays trees.. 2 avocado trees etc ... I had also done a raised bed about 4 yrs ago that i need to replace, so in the meantime, i had taken a rotting pumpkin and tossed it on there & also cantaloupe... They were thriving ... But, i blinked & bugs ate the leaves ... Magically, about 5 yrs ago, birds must have dropped seeds via their poop & i had a 12ft squash plants growing across my front lawn - great conversations w/passers by ... They flowered, but didn't produce the squash -the flowers are also edible & considered a delicacy ...Bottom line: you'll get a more bountiful & organized garden if you plant the seeds individually & tend to the garden, but if no means to do that, don't through rotten/bruised or over-ripened veg/fruit away - toss them in a garden plot, or make a compost w/them.😊👍👍💜🙏

@@JR-zm2yu that’s amazing!
I Use parchment paper and they don’t stick as bad.
Virginia Stith me too.x
Thank you for making short, sweet and to the point without 20 minutes of nonsense like most of the other videos. I don’t need a science lesson about how tomatoes come to be 😂. Great video!
Never knew about the fermenting part,I'll have to do it this way now.
Great video , but I have found that through years of saving heirloom seeds, that after you rinse the pulp off, of your seeds in the strainer, it is much more effective to put the seeds back into a container of water. Let them sit in the container for about 15 minutes, then you will see some of the seeds floating, as well as some of them floating between the top and bottom of the container . You must discard all of them. Only keep the ones that have stayed in the bottom. My germination rate has been incredible since doing this for years . 100 percent germination rate is usually unheard of , but I have been getting it for several years, by using this method of elimination of seed separation. Best of luck to everyone.
I'm starting my "Seed Journey" as in investing in heirloom varieties, and this was PERFECT. Note: The "Off Grid" with Jim and Stacy method actually seemed more difficult to me. Who has room for slices in pots, especially to be kept in the dark for a year? I just see it as a sloppy, space consuming process. Your method comes together in about a week, identification is maintained, and storage is compact and tidy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge - this was EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!💚🍅🐝🥒🌱🌻❤️🧡‼️
Great video!
Gardening is a passion of mine, I never gave thought to save tomato seed, but now... Im totally on board!
I would love I see a collaboration with you all, Starry, Doug & Stacy, Art & Bri, Appalachian homestead, Gilbrook farms, Kyp Smith, Big family homestead and Dirt Patch Heaven on your favorite tips on how to save money on the homestead (getting what you need with little $) or affording a homestead. I think this would benefit many.
Was this idea ever brought to life? I'm very excited and in need of that very video 😌💚🌱🍄🍃🌰
Poor&Happy Off-Grid I don’t think so.
FASCINATING! I love learning new methods!!
That's exactly what I was wanting to know how to do. Thanks for showing me.
That is amazing! I am going to try this, thanks so much for sharing!
thank you so much for walking threw the whole process start to finish ! i will use your technique this week!
Thanks for posting this. Like how you didn't rush and explained each step. Can't wait to start this process out :)
So glad I came across your channel. Such awesome info! Thanks! 😊
Omgoodness! I love y'all so much! I have been trying to find good information about this! ❤️😍❤️😍❤️
I watched your video last year and used your method to save Beefsteak, Mr Stripey, and Roma. Had 20 plants of each for myself and family
Excellent video Danny! Thanks so much for this.
Thank you for taking the time to show the process you use. Will try it this year.
I started saving some today. Thank you for the info.
Thank you so much for sharing,after watching this I figured out that I was doing it right.Thanks again
Thank you! This was EXACTLY the type of instructional video I was hoping for! :)
Excellent video ! Tons of great information as well ! Thank you
Thank you, I'm new at planting and I'm trying to cycle between colder and warmer plants for the seasons and my goal is to never have to buy seeds again. :) this is a big help.
Very informative video with great easy to follow instructions. Thank you Danny.
Thanks, Danny! I'm just getting started saving seeds. I've read a few articles, but it's so much better to see it done! Going to try saving some Arkansas Traveler seeds this weekend!
Thank you so much for step by step instructions. Slowly explained and so patient...
I had no idea! Very interesting. Thank you Danny much appreciated. Great info for saving our seeds which is so important. Blessings from New Mexico
Thank you! I have learned quite a bit from your channel and appreciate your help.
A very clear and very easy to understand video... Thank you Danny & Wanda
Great Video! I had no idea about the 4/5 day sit around time! That's cool Danny and Camera gal Wanda! Thank you!
Thank you! I learn so much from your videos. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge
Thank you so much for showing how to save Tomato seeds, very well done.
Brilliant, Mr. Danny. Thank you from Tuscaloosa, AL.
Thank you so much for this video! It’s my first to watch! God bless you and your family.
What a wonderful tutorial! Thank you for taking the time to share. I will be trying this.
Blessings from our family to yours.
I use the same method. This year's planting are from seeds harvested in 2010 and 2014. Right now in April 1st., 2024 [ no trickery], they are 30" high with blossoms. Nothing more than kept in paper envelops, under normal refrigeration. I have a 25' ladder made our of wire fence tubes, neighbors call them tomato trees; indeed, growing higher than the house roof top. Chow! Yeah I can prove it. Rungs - treated 2"x 4" diag. holes.
Thanks for sharing! Your first video I ever seen. You go in detail very well. Can’t wait to see the next!
Very nice job thank you so much for taking time out of your day to do this for us I really appreciate it god bless you and your family
Thanks for that awesome demo for saving seeds
You're a great teacher, very thorough and patient. Thank you!
Just a genius. Greetings from Bedford, England. Thank you.
What a great video! Thank you! I will certainly be saving my tomato seeds from now on!❤
Very informative and thoughtful video! Thank you! Needed this info tonight after snacking on a 1lb, 11 ounce heirloom from my garden. Wanted to be sure to save some of the seeds so this was helpful 😊
Thank you for your time amd sharing your knowledge. This is my 1st year planting and harvesting tomatoes. Your video is excellent!
FANTASTIC video! I have grown heirloom seeds before but never knew how to save the seeds from them
Ya!!! I am so happy to find this video tonight. I was asking this exact question today. I have a beautiful tomato plant and the weather is getting cold fast. I really want to try for another next year. I will start it in the house early though. I got this one at the store and put it in the garden spot in mid to late July. Thanks so much. 👍
Thank you so much for sharing i am saving seeds for the first time this year and i am so greatful for you sharing your knowledge
Very well presented, we are saving seed this year, I didn't know about letting them sit til the mold grew...makes sense to me! Thanks for all you guys do to help us all scoot along.
Awesome! I wondered how to do this. Thank you!

Thanks for going through that "saving tomato seeds'
That was very interesting. I'm going to try that. Awesome!°😊😊😊😊
Excellent info! Thanks so much!
Rough season with tomatoes this year but the best heirloom tomato was the Box Car Willie for me. Nice big tomatoes and with all the rain it still did well.
Thank you Danny for this video
Thank you so much Danny. God Bless you. Great information. 💒
wow, already saving seed from 2017. I'm in KCMO and just now getting red to start on my first tomatoes.
Thanka for the excellent demonstration video. I wish that I had paid more attention to my grandparents growing up since they were self sustained.
Thanks Danny, I’ve got a couple tricks to add: I see you use masking tape to mark the soaking jar - If you stick that to your face a couple times before sticking to the jar it won’t be as sticky, which will make it easy to peel off the jar and then affix to the paper towel. It eliminates messing with a sharpie with wet hands. I can attest to the importance of labeling (YOU WILL FORGET.)
You can also throw a few grains of rice in the zip lock bag to act as a desiccant, keeping them dryer so they last a few more years, and much cheaper than those paper desiccant packs.
As far as what seeds to save, any OP (Open Pollenated) or Heirloom fruits will breed true to the single parent plant. Hybrid seeds (labeled F1, F2, GMO) have two completely different parents and they will not give the same fruit true to the fruit they were harvested from. It doesn’t matter if it’s “ORGANIC” or not, as long as it’s healthy.
Thom Spengler thank you!
That was awesome advice. Tks.
Great advice, Thank You!
I use painters green Frog tape, which is not as sticky as regular masking tape
Thanks so much for taking the time to show how to save your tomato seeds. I came looking because I wasn't sure what to do about the membrane surrounding all my seeds. I didn't realize there were other important steps to having viable seeds. Thanks for the clear explanation, and for sharing your hard earned knowledge! You're saving folks like me from a disappointing outcome next spring, and that's priceless! Be Well!
You are a great teacher! I save seeds from everything but have had some issues saving tomato seeds. Now I know how it's done. Also, you talk like me! I also am from the deep South! I have subscribed and am looking forward to checking out your other videos.
This is the best tomato (gel coated) seed saving instruction. Detailed, step by step, can see what you're doing. I also appreciate that you explain why. This is the next best thing to learning in person.
Awesome! Thank you so much! I will save the seeds of my tomatoes this year!
I live in East Texas. Thank You for helping me. God Bless-Jerry M
A best practices is to select the best, earliest tomatoe for seed saving.
One of the best teaching channels on RUclips thanks
Appreciate you sharing how you do the seeds, Danny. As I have time I'm trying to watch some of your older videos on how you do things.
I do my seeds very similar and have so far been good for a couple years. Thanks again and blessings to you and Wanda.
Very thorough. This was so helpful. I will be saving quite a bit of seed from now on now. I bought mostly heirlooms this year so I could do just that. Gotta save where we can 😉. Thank you so much for this!
I know that this is an old video, but I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this information. Now I can harvest all my seeds from my garden this year with confidence. Much love from Utah.
Cheers👍 that's great to know especially in these uncertain times.
So glad I came across this! Thank you for sharing!
Excellent video thanks for sharing. It's a process however I can do this,great teaching Mr.Danny.
Great video! I did my dragon fruit seeds this way! I’m so happy to see that I’m on the right track! Blessings!
Thank you Danny that is perfect!! Now I can’t wait to get a tomato to harvest seeds and cucumber and squash and cantaloupe etc.😊👍
Thank you you explained it so well! I’m gonna give it a try!
Thank you for the information!! Excellent video. Take care!
You are very clear in your instructions.
thank you.
Danny we used your method for seed saving and we have Roma, yellow pears and Rutgers starting from our saved seeds. It’s exciting to see we can propagate from our own plants and they should be acclimated to our area.
Thank You Im going to try this year with various plants
Thank you deep south Homestead for showing me how to save seeds once again in life I never thought I would be able to see someone do this again but I did thank you
Love this video! Learned alot! Thank you.
Hi, Southern American Human. We live very different lives and the best part? I learned how to grow my favorite veggie from you. Thank you :) Will try this in NYC on my windowsill!
Thank you for this video,Very informative and helpful for beginners like me. ❤
Thanks for the demonstration Danny.
Great video, I will follow your instructions. God bless from New Brunswick Canada

Thank u so much awsome thanx for yor kindness . N knowledge. From canada 🇨🇦
Thank you so much . Will try this this year.
Great video, thank you sir for being so detailed. From California 👍🏼👍🏼
Very interesting way I will have to try it. where I live the tomato's that fall off and rot the net year I get lots of plants come up just separate and plant. But they are not always the ones I want.
Thanks Danny! For someone that is literally brand new to this your information is a Godsend!! I truly appreciate all you do! Cant wait to get to meet you in VA!
We were invited to the VA conference but had to decline. We have sugar cane coming in at that time. With the weather, we can't risk a freeze on it. October is a busy month. We hope some day to get to the conference. You will have a blast with the people that are gonna be there. Great group of speakers.
Aww well we aren't that far apart so maybe next time I'm up that way we can meet! Thanks again for all of the information
