I was eating some apples the other day and I saved the seeds. I planted
them in my garden a few days ago. How long till my apple plants grow? I
really want some apples soon, hope my apple bushes sprout in early January.
I fertilized them with some vinegar and put some snow around them to keep
them from getting too hot.
Thanks

Hi David,
Can you explain what apple bushes are? Apples grow on trees.
Also, if you expect the apples grown from seeds to taste anything like your
orginal apples, forget it. Don't get too attached to them, unless you want
to
just experiment to see what comes up. If you really want to grow the apples
you ate, you have to buy some scion (small branches) of the same variety and
graft them onto a rootstock, or buy a ready made tree of that variety.

I think trolling is a little more subtle. This is just a dumb joke.

You obviously don't know what a troll is. A troll asks a question
solely to incite. This is a classic example. Jim's query wasn't to
incite, it was perhaps a dumb question.
