I bought some pink lady apples and found seeds starting to sprout in the cores. Planted them and now have 6 tiny apple trees! And one tiny grapefruit tree too.
But I started out with already sprouting inside the produce.
If you want an apple tree go to a nursery and by a small or larger tree depending on what you can afford. As for eating them, I eat the whole apple including the seeds and core and throw the stem away. It won't hurt and you'll get the most of nutrition from the apple.
Seeds from a Golden Delicious won't necessarily produce a golden delicious if they do thrive and produce fruit.
I was told many many years ago that if you want to grow apples trees from the seeds (I had apples from out 75 yr old trees) - you need to freeze the apples before planting them. I've not done it yet (I will be next spring) but she was well-versed in those things, so that's what I will do with a Granny Smith from the store and pray it makes Granny Smith apples.
I would love to plant an apple or peach tree from seed. It's just that I'm afraid I won't live long enough to enjoy them! :D
Most fruit trees need to be grafted. In other words the seeds you sprout will give you a tree but the fruit will be like a wild apple and sometimes they are not very tasty. The grafting is usually done by using a good root stock and grafting a producing tree onto it. When you buy a fruit tree at the nursery all that has been done for you. It takes years to get a tree to bear good fruit.
How did you get the celery to grow?
Don't waste your time planting a seed! Go buy a tree of the variety you wish to grow and you will be sure you have the best one for you. If you live in a small plot, buy a dwarf one and in a couple years you will have fruit if you do all the things to get unblemished fruit like the super markets. Remember, you will need to fertilize, spray with poison, use blossom set, spray 2 or 3 more time and you Might get a few good eating apples but it's easier to just select the right apple for your choice of cooking or eating. There are also trees that have more than one type of apple growing on them. Good luck!,
