Tomato Expert in Vancouver

March 24, 2006 at 6:08 pm · Filed under Gardening, General

On the GardenWeb forums I found an heirloom tomato expert in Port Moody. She has a great looking garden and is already harvesting lettuce that she planted in January in her cold frame. Her success has encouraged me to think about how I can get my garden started early next year, or even try to keep it producing year round.

    jasper, I’m no expert, and I’ve never saved seeds from a tomato before. There are some tips on the web:

    From Pat N Steph:

    Seeds can only be saved from open pollinated or heirloom types. Seeds saved from hybrid types will likely be genetically unstable and lead to unpredictable results.
