I have had bad luck with germinating my seeds for this variety (and from this vendor) and have been unable to get it off the ground. Sent it upstate to my friend to try she has fruit coming in - without any seeds.

Does anyone have any seeds they can spare? I would really like to grow this next year - the season is ending and it doesn't appear we'll get any saved before the blight takes over my friends greenhouse.

Thanks all!

I can send you seeds saved from last year(s) right away, which germinated fine, or I can ferment this year seeds, just take 4-5 extra days.

Maybe this is obvious already, but to save seeds from oxheart tomatoes effectively you have to slice them vertically.

That's kind of you, thank you. If you have last year's to spare that would be wonderful.
