Here are my apple seeds. I read some tutorials online about keeping them in the fridge to simulate stratification before they germinate. Someone suggested doing more than one seed just in case they don’t take. Much to my surprise after nearly three months in the fridge, this is what they look like today. Anyone know if I should plant these in dirt now? I live in a northern wintery Canadian climate so they can’t go outside. I don’t know what I should do!
Good tasting apples are more common than we are led to believe; my town has many naturally recruited (not grafted) apple trees that bear edible fruit. They are on some hiking trails and in mountains and generally in places nobody would think to graft a tree. Are the apples store quality? No. But they are tasty enough, and edible while you’re on a hike or whatnot. True that for every one of those, there are many crab apple trees though.
There are lots of volunteer apple trees where I live and they’re all edible in a pinch… I’d say about half of them are actually good!
