Check seeds periodically to ensure they do not dry out. Mist with a spray bottle to ensure they are not too wet, as that can cause rot. Mark the date on the bag, and place them inside the fridge to keep between 35-40 degrees F. This mimics their natural conditions in the wild, and provides the “false winter” Apple seeds need in order to break dormancy.3) Plant seeds ½ deep in a well mixed & well draining commercial seed starting mix. (Be sure to bake the soil at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes to ensure that it is sterile before planting them.4) Use a heated propagator to keep the soil at appx. 75 degrees during the day. Turning the propagator off at night to let the temperature drop to between 65-68 degrees will also help improve germination rates.5) Keep moist, (Not wet), and keep a bright direct light above containers or trays, but never full sunlight at this stage.6) Expect germination in 2-3 weeks. Keep them in filtered light for at least 3-4 weeks before starting to expose them to full sun for brief amounts of time. It is best to get them planted as soon as they sprout as the tap roots of Apple seeds do not like to be disturbed.
