You can grow as many tomato varieties as you like - we recommend keeping varieties 2 meters away apart to avoid confusion and reduce the chance of cross pollination. Allow fruits to fully ripen on the plant before picking. The seeds require fermentation to clean off the gloop and stop them sticking to each other - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IzJrJV2GSfk\"\u003ehere's some instructions\u003c\/a\u003e on how to do that.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of plants to save seeds from:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1\u003c\/span\u003e plants minimum, 3 or more is ideal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSelf pollinated  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to send seed back:\u003c\/b\u003e Please label all seed with variety, type, date and your contact.
