BS you can clone tomatoes any time
If you cut a healthy tomato plant and put the cutting directly into a glass of water, in 5 days you will see roots. Ive seen it in less but I suspect the stem had already formed rootlets from excessive rain.
I've rooted tomatoes that had green fruit on it. Took forever to ripen and tasted like crap, but didn't stop the plant none.
No rudeness intended, Bmoney from 'bama, but ya gotta try it some time, its so freakin easy and it beats payin 20$ a flat.
Better living through chemistry memes.
When I bought my tomatoes and peppers from the nursery this year they all looked like clones.
You can totally clone tomatoes. The REALLY cool thing to do though, is "grafting". You can use the lower portion (basically short stump with root mass) of a hybrid plant (whose seeds are non viable) and 'attach' or 'graft on' the upper portion of an heirloom variety (whose seeds ARE viable). and make an awesome tomato! You get the strength, yield, disease resistance and other positive attributes from the lower and you get the taste, color and seeds of the upper! It's amazing to me that we, as humans can reverse engineer even a plant who has been genetically modified already! And doing it 100% naturally (yes, they do this with cannabis already).

Yes you can clone them anytime. I work at a nursery. I do it all the time in the greenhouses.
