Last Years Tomato Seed Question?

[fiskies]

Last year I purchased a cherry tomoato plant called conchita from B&Q and it was a suttons Turbo grafted variety, see link...
Suttons: Vegetable Plants, Tomato Grafted Plant Collection

They performed very well last year so I dried some seeds from some of the best fruit and I currently have some small 10cm high plants getting ready for this year. My question is as they are 'turbo' and 'grafted' will the seeds bear fruit this year as I have been reading this site it seems any modified varieties and 'f1' dont produce from their seeds the following year, is this correct or am I worrying too muuch.

As a back up I've just sown some gardeners delight which were free with a mag as a back-up.

I found a description of Conchita which reads �Average fruit weight 20 grams (0.75 oz) Long shelf life and firm fruits. Calyx stays green. Conchita may be used for truss harvest.� I can�t find a definite answer to whether it is F1 but I suspect it is as it seems to be a �supermarket� tomato.

No harm experimenting with the saved seed, if you�ve got room and don�t expect anything from them, personally I�d grow the Gardeners delight this season and for next year, look at the thousands of other varieties which aren�t bred especially for commercial use � you�ll find loads of threads on the subject on this forum for a start

Sorry got dragged away. bloomin work, always gets in the way!

Basically, as what king carrot says - give it a go (although I was going to say the usual method in saving tomato seed is fermenting it first, then discarding non viable seed, etc). Can't hurt - you've got time to sow more if they don't germinate
