What follows below is a step-by-step guide on how to grow your own apple tree. We all know that growing anything takes time, so you should have in mind the project will take some commitment.
However it’s easier than one might think!
What You Will Need
You will need 1 ripe organic apple, a sharp knife, some paper towels, water and 1 plastic bag.
How To Do It
Remember that apples are best when they’re fresh. If you want to make sure the seeds germinate, then use an organic apple and cut it into halves before getting four or more seeds for the planting process.
Then, get the paper towels because they are important to clean off apple residue from seeds and for gamification process. Wrap your seeds in the paper towel and soak them in water again.
After soaking the paper towel, put it in a plastic bag. Tie it off so that no more air can get into it and place them back inside your refrigerator for one month. Re-apply water to the paper towel every week during this time.
Once the seed sprout, it means the germinating process is finished. Now, you will need compost, a small container, a small shovel and a watering can.
Even if this will seem simply, it still requires special attention. Fill the pot with soil and compost – then take a small shovel or spoon and make a 2-3 inch-deep hole in which seeds can rest safely without being buried too deeply.
In the end, place your seeds in the hole and cover them with soil. Water the soil using the watering can. You should water your apple tree regularly during its early stages of growth.
