  • Tonkin tomatoes

    Has anyone ever grown these? I bought them from a supermarket and found them really juice and nice. So I have saved the seeds to grow next year.

    Ive not tried these cariann but i have a silly question - how do you save the seeds? Is it just simply wash and dry them?

      I watched this to show me how to save seeds. I follow the 1st method. Never tried the other one.

          If you mean Tomkin from A--a the real name is Edioso and its an F2 not sure if they will come true from saved seed. New seed is not expensive I have seen it at £2 for 20.

              Yeah they are from there. I'll try grow them but if all else fails then I'll buy them. Thank you

                Question?

                Does anyone know where I can buy Tomkin (Edioso) seeds?

                Thanks

                  What makes you think Edioso is an F2?

                    No it's it's an F1, not an F2. But I'm guessing he got confused by the same thread that I just saw, on another forum, which is labelled Tomkin F2 . In fact the thread is about someone growing plants from seeds from a Tomkin/Edioso F1 tomato, which are then the F2 generation.
