Let’s explore how you can create a thriving apple sapling from what would typically be discarded – the core and seeds. In the following paragraphs, we’ll guide you through each step, offering tips for a successful venture that requires minimal effort.
Growing an Apple Plant: Nurturing from a Seed
As mentioned, the journey to nurturing your own apple tree begins with a seed extracted from a ripe apple. Creating a sapling is a relatively swift process, yet it demands patience due to the extended timelines for fruiting and tree growth. While you may not witness the fruition of your labor in the immediate future, over time, your efforts may bear sweet rewards.

Carefully stop the knife just before reaching the center, then utilize your hands to expose the seeds. Once you’ve collected the seeds, it’s time to initiate the germination process.
