Apple Seed Sprouts
Here are some of the apple seeds I wrapped up in a moist paper towel and put in the refrigerator last April (2016.) The process of storing the seeds in moist, cold conditions like I did is called vernalization. Vernalization softens the hard outer coat of the seed and encourages the embryo inside the seed to start germinating. The cold fools the seeds into thinking they went through Winter and when you plant them, Spring activates them. And as you can see, they have started germinating nicely. They had really strong roots. These particular seeds are from a Golden Delicious apple I chilled back on April 8th, 2016. I had done 6 different packets of seeds like this and today was the day I planted them in my back yard to start growing up to be apple trees.
