Thanks Tara for sharing with us how you root tomato plants in water then plant in soil. I'm learning something new from farmgirls all the time, thanks to all.

I've seen where the Amish slice a tomato, lay the slice flat in a pot with soil, and put in a cool place like a crawl space. The seeds produce tiny plants that can be planted in the spring.
I don't have a basement or crawl space, or I might try this.
I did try overwintering some pepper plants once. They looked ok for a while but then gave up the ghost.
Never thought of putting in water. I have several plants in the garden right now with flowers on them, so I may try this.
I am currently trying to root a bunch of coleus and wandering jews in water to save for next year.
