    I've seen this on other medias, can't believe it would work? Good on you for challenging what's the norm��

      The above one is a shop bought so even if it does germinate I won't be growing them as I don't know the variety or if they are F1's.

      Tomorrow I'll be setting another poll but upping the anti................watch this space..........

              Ah yes..The old "sound like you know what you are talking about, even if you don't" trick

              Oft used by me too...particularly when answering some weird questions the children ask

                I think they will but may take a while, as I am guessing the jelly around them is a growth inhibitor

                  That's exactly what I was going to say. You'd have to wait for the pulp to rot away.

                      I've voted yes, I find toms seedling in my Dalek compost so I'm sure your slice will grow as well.

                        I never thought of that Bren but how true.

                          What would have made it more of a challenge would be tinned tomatoes

                          OK, I will get my coat

                            I think they will. I've found germinating tomato seeds in a shop bought tomato.

                              I also think they will.

                              Next challenge GL could be the tinned toms, guess i´d vote no for that though
