Seeds germinating inside a tomato is called vivipary. It occurs in overripe fruit when seeds have reached maturity and the natural hormone, abscisic acid (ABA), is reduced. Then, seed dormancy is lost gradually. The tomato fruit allows vivipary since the seeds do not dry out in the moist environment inside the fruit. Some causes of seeds sprouting in tomatoes are long storage in cool temperatures (below 55 degrees Fahrenheit), being overripe, potassium deficiency, over fertilization with nitrogen.
