apple seed propagation


Question
I'm going to plant some apple seeds that I got from a store bought golden delicious apple and I was wandering how to get it growing because all my past attempts have failed.


Answer
Jeremy,

You praboly need to stratify the seeds.  Place them in a ziplock with slightly moist peat mosss and put in the bottom drawer of your refridgerator.  Now forget about them for about three months.  Then place in a pot with potting medium and see what happens.  And you may get apples in 5-7 years providing you have a pollinator apple tree.

If you want grow your own apples go to your local garden center this spring and buy and established tree.
