How To Cross-Pollinate Tomatoes & Make Your Own Custom Tomato Plant.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Have you ever wondered whether or not it’s worth shaking or tomato plant flowers. Shaking your tomato plant flowers or using an electric toothbrush to vibrate tomato plant flowers does not result in higher yields. This is because the tomato plant flowers are a closed flower and therefore our self pollinated. This gardening and the video looks at how do use tomato flowers and it’s anatomy to make hybrid crosses. After you’re done this video will officially know how to make tomato hybrid crosses and design your own version of a tomato. When looking at tomato flowers and pollinating for higher yield while doing crosses consider the parent features of the adult tomato plants.

PLEASE SUBSCRIBE if you are wanting to know more on gardening in Canada & gardening in Colder Climates in general. My methods apply to the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 1 - Zone 6. As a soil scientist I always try to incorporate science into my videos. Soil science can be over complicated so allow me to guide you.
Leave a comment and let me know where your are gardening. And let me know what videos you would like to see in the future!
Ashley is an agronomist who has had a passion for plants since she was a small child. In the long summers as a child, she would garden alongside her grandmother and it was then that she realized her love for greenery. With years of great studying, Ashley had begun her post-secondary education at the University of Saskatchewan.
At first, her second love, animals, was the career path she chose but while doing her undergrad she realized that her education would take her elsewhere. And with that, four years later she graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a bachelor’s degree in science and a major in Soil Science.
Some of Ashley’s interests are KZread, in which she posts informative videos about plants and gardening. The focus of Ashley’s KZread channel is to bring science to gardening in a way that is informative but also helpful to others learning to garden. She also talks about the importance of having your own garden and the joys of gardening indoors. Ashley continues to study plants in her free time and hopes to expand her KZread channel as well as her reach to up and coming gardeners.

Well, that was interesting and not more science-y than my science knowledge level can handle. Great to have this demo for reference material!

I lost most of my tomatoes and peppers in that shock frost Ontario got on may 28th. I’ve babied them like crazy and most are coming back. Just wanted to share my struggle

Planning to try to breed a completely purple slicer from a Norfolk Purple GMO cherry tomato and a beefsteak of some sort. Suspect it might take a few generations.
This was an excellent video 👌

I may try Yellow Gold to a Roma…. Another questions is about saving seeds to a true type. For example I do have a mule team tomato, a San Marzano and rapunzel and I would like save the seeds. Should a parchment paper wrapping at flowing stage do the trick or leave them as is?

That’s a cool combo! And just leave them as is. It’s very unlikely you will have a cross. Absolute most I would do is place a netting over the flower.
Besides having ten varieties of radish that went to seed, we've cross pollinated all of our strawberry plants that were grown from seed last summer. We have a very fluffy brush that we go from flower to flower like a bumblebee, and the end of the brush is a nice bright yellow with all the pollen on it. It's interesting to see all the differences in each of the strawberry plants, and we even have a new runner with a flower already, which means it's remontant~

You should try it. I live in Toronto and it may be a little milder but I left some guacamole hostas in a very shallow soil but wide plastic container and they overwintered fine last year.

So.. how do you decide which plant should be the pollen donor and which should produce the tomato? Do certain traits come from male or female cells?
QUESTION...say you do exactly what you just did...now that flower will produce a tomato...will only that tomatoe be a hybrid from that single flower? Or does the whole plant become a hybrid? Meaning every tomato that it produces is now a hybrid?

the tomato will look like a tomato from the mother plant, but the seeds will be children of the two plants. You will see how the tomatochildren (the F1´s) are next year when you grow them. If you don't hybridisize, the seeds in the tomato will have only one parent - the parent plant will be both the mother and father of the seeds, and the tomatoes next year will be the same as this year.
So, the resulting seed from that tomato will be the same as the fruit developed or would it be of one of the parents?

It would be a potential cross of the parents involved. So if you look up punnet squares that will go you an idea of the possibilities
