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!

@Hellybootwader @gardening Thank you for the advice. Yes, should be doable! I wasn’t sure if I should get them out of the fridge now given where they are at in their growth stage. If I pot all six, I’ll have to find somewhere in the spring as we won’t have enough room in our yard for a permanent home.

@thomaswm @gardening they may not all survive. I’d pot them all up so it won’t matter if you lose a couple- you can also keep them in pots for a few years.
