    S-H, I carried my flat of cherry tomato starts into the computer so they could see yours. I wanted to give them incentive to grow, grow, grow!
    Those are beautiful tomatoes, and I hope you enjoy every last one of them. :)

    Oh I want to reach into my computer a pick one just to see how good it tastes. Hopefully it won't be too long before I can start sowing Cherry Tomato seeds for this year.

    OK, now I tell you all a secret. I had only bought some local Tomato seeds to plant. I honestly had no idea that some of them will turn out to be Cherry Tomatoes!!!

    Anyway as they all grew, I started to notice differences. So that's when I separated them from the others. Now of course I will only collect seeds from these to re-plant!

    Best thing about Karachi's weather is that Tomatoes can be grown throughout the entire year. So I'm now aiming for at least 50 (if not a 100) plants at any given time!!!

    Alright, this is the last of them. The plants too have just been added to the compost pile. And so these last few good ones I'll be collecting the seeds from - While the smaller ones I'll eat right now!

    No, not these. However earlier I did dry a lot of them, and they sure did live up to their reputation of exceptional taste!
