Hello steemit! Today i will show you how to save tomato seeds.

I prefer to ferment them, because then they have a 90% more chance to grow.

We will need jar with water for first step and tomato. tomato seeds fermenting1.png

First simply slice tomato with knife

Then you squeeze tomato . ( dont squeeze all seeds because if you want make some kind of tomato sauce its better to have some seeds for flavor)

So just slice squeeze few tomatoes.
