Has anyone else seen this?
Sep. 15th, 2003 08:58 pmI was just cutting tomatoes up for sauce (calamari with eggplants, beans and two kinds of squash from the garden). Now most of them were my tomatoes, but some were ones I picked up at the farmer's market over a week ago. They looked okay, on the outside.
But when I started to cut one of them I realised something wasn't right. So I opened it with my fingers, to realise that a bunch of the tomato seeds had sprouted -- inside the tomato! Three inch long little plants with rudimentary leaves. Ew! But kind of cool, too.
I think I might have to plant them and see if they're willing to overwinter under lights... I mean, obviously they are tough.
