How I save apple seeds in the refrigerator for breeding new varieties. The method is simple, but very specific. I disinfect the seeds with hydrogen peroxide, dry them off on the outside and store sealed for the winter. This way the seeds stay fresh and plump. They undergo chilling in the refrigerator for months, before they are sprouted in the spring. If the seeds are dried all the way, they must be resoaked, then put through the chilling process for 6 weeks or more. This method more closely mimics how most apple seeds naturally sprout, exiting the apple fresh and staying hydrated all winter in the soil or duff, before sprouting in the spring.
