Seed Saving Lunchtime

I have been away for a few days and on my return the tomatoes in the back garden are turning red nicely, so I have harvest some for us and some for my eldest daughter Emma who now has her own place and I've saved seed from some of the ones that are ripe but have split or been got at.

So fermenting in eggcups are

Red Zebra
Outdoor Girl
Stupike Poini Rana
Tumbling Tom Red

These have not been in isolation so there is a possibility of cross pollination but it seems stupid not to save the seeds especially from damaged tomatoes that I would not eat.

Sandpipe has been in isolation in the space saver greenhouse and is going to be one of my contributions to a seed circle this year.
