Germinating Apples

It takes about 4 more weeks for the apple seeds to sprout.

Materials:
* apple seeds (Do not use Yellow or Red Delicious. They don't sprout.)
* paper towels
* plastic zipper bags (2 or 3)
* paper cups (1 per every 2 or 3 sprouts)
* potting soil (enough to fill paper cups)

Procedure: Collect several seeds from apples. Allow these seeds to dry for about 2 weeks. Apple seeds germinate better when they are cold and moist. Lay the seeds inside damp paper towels. Place these inside plastic zipper bags and put in a refrigerator. Plant the seedlings in paper cups filled with potting soil. Place them in a sunny location and keep the soil moist.
