    Yes, absolutely! This will not hurt a thing. The tomatoes will kill off any remaining plants when they are planted out. There would be no problem in doing this.

    To germinate tomato seeds (get them to start growing), you need to give them moisture, as explained here:

    Milk or coffee might work, but they might have different effects on the seeds than water does. Think about the pH (acidity) of milk or coffee and how that might affect seeds.

    Interesting question that I do not have specifics to give you.

    The amount of pollen in flowers can depend on the number of male and female flowers, and many environmental conditions.

    You may want to contact a research program that may be able to answer this question.

    This would indicate that the soil has too much nitrogen, or that the soil pH is a little low. You can offset this by adding dolomitic lime, and anything with a high phosphorus and potassium ratio.

    As long as the weather remains above 50 degrees, or you can keep it close to that then you can start at any time. If you start in trays, you will have to transplant within a week or so. If you start in a pot, then you can leave them in for just a little longer. Just make sure they don't get subjected to cold weather, and they will be fine.

    Seedless Tomato Plants should be kept away from other tomatoes, as to not cross pollinate.
