My four-year-old daughter is super excited about planting the golden delicious seeds she took out of an apple we bought at the grocery store. What are some tips you can give me to boost their chances of survival? I know I could look it up, but I'm new to Reddit and just want to chat with you all!

Planting those apple seeds can be a fun project! They should eventually sprout if you give them some care, but it takes time. Start by keeping the seeds damp in paper towels and refrigerating them for about two weeks. Once that’s done, you can let them sit at room temperature in the damp towels until you see them sprouting. After that, just pop them in some soil. Oh, and it's a great idea to plant some sunflowers or beans alongside them for quicker results—your daughter will love watching the roots grow! Have fun with it!
We've already done sunflowers and beans, plus melons! But she’s really set on those apple seeds, haha.
