How to Grow an Apple Tree from Seeds

PLANTING THE SEEDS To do this, choose a pot containing neutral pH soil. Dig a hole slightly larger than the size of your seed in the soil. Since the young shoot is still fragile, be careful when placing your germinated seed in the hole. The sprout should be pointing downwards. To stimulate the growth of your apple tree, you can add compost only and avoid using fertilizer. Then cover your seed with soil, gently firm it down, and water the soil. Keep your pot at room temperature in partial shade. Apple trees appreciate warmth, but the sun could burn your small and fragile apple tree. After a few weeks, you will notice the emergence of the first leaves. Only then can you place your pot in full sunlight.
