I bought a tomato at the store and squeezed the seeds onto a paper towel. After they dried, I cut the paper around the seed and planted them in good potting soil. Keep damp and you will have tomato plants in about a week. I tried planting seeds immediately after squeezing the tomato and they did not grow, so you must dry the seeds.
I have saved seeds from fruits I bought but if they did not stay on the bush till they get ripe the seeds are no good,will not come up,you need to buy local fruits to have any good luck or grow them at home, good luck.
I did the same thing with red peppers a few weeks ago and now I have pepper plants growing in containers in my back yard. Now I am going to try cantaloupe seeds from a melon I purchased a few days ago.
