Make Tomato Seed

How to produce tomato seed?
First we must choose the best tomato food as the seed candidate. The criterion of best tomato may can be seen physically like there are no diseases on the tomato skin, have big fruit, have good color like red, and good taste, you must try the taste of this tomato.

To make seed you slice the tomato and out all fruit to the cup, then mixed with a little water to make easy to filter. Use small hole filter so the seed is not go through the filter hole. After you get all the seed then lets in the cup and cover the cup with plastic and keep in warm location for several days. This process means fermentation, this process need about 3 days.

After fermentation process, then rinse the tomato seed with water several time and filter the seed, then spray in the plate to dry but don't in hot temperature even this can make seed dead. This drying process need several days, after the seed not stick each others this mean that seeds have dried.

Tomato seed dried can keep in a plastic sealed or in an envelope to avoid from contamination from fungi or other germ that make the tomato seed dead.
