Yes please Rosie - hopefully they are blight resistant! I've just lost all my outdoor varieties to blight as have many other folk in the UK growing toms this year, due to the wet and weird 'summer' we've all had.

Have pm'd you my address again in case you've deleted it from your files.

Poor you  :-[ well if it's any consolation they didn't get blossom end rot!

I hope they work out ok, keen to get this tomato saving trick right! I left the seeds to ferment then rinsed them and started drying them today, they ponged a bit so I'm soaking them overnight and will rinse again tomorrow and dry, Don't worry I'm still harvesting so If this batch doesn't work out I'll try again................ a first time tomato seed saver here!!

I've never done more than lay the seeds out on kitchen paper to dry direct from the fruit, whether it be tomato, pepper, chilli, aubergine or squash and have always got good results.
