| I saved two seeds from a really good tasting store tomato a few months ago. I can hardly believe it-they're up ! Waiting now for true leaves. If I get healthy plants and good tomatoes I'm going to freak out ! I'm learning that it's hard work babysitting seedlings. I hope the effort pays off. |

| You have never grown a tomato before? If not, have fun.I hope the new plants give tomatoes that taste just as good. :) |
|
| That is good, I think. If you want to become a good gardener you should get excited OFTEN. |
|
| Yes, I always grow container tomatoes, but from plants. I have never used seeds let alone seeds I saved. Thanks for the good wishes ! |

| Congratulations, Deeby! I remember the feeling of shock several years ago, that seeds I'd saved actually sprouted and grew. (Mine were descendents of some grape tomatoes that volunteered in my compost area.) |

| This is how I end up with literally several hundred tomato seedlings when I realistically can barely keep up with a few dozen plants. I just LOVE the process! |
|
| I buy my seeds and would like to try saving my own, so I hope I will be as successful! |
|
| Now I'm really proud ! To be called successful ! I'm a gardener ! |
