After stratification, sow seeds indoors in pots filled with a well-draining seed-starting mix, barely covering them with soil. Keep the medium consistently moist and maintain a temperature around 70°F (21°C). Germination can take several weeks to a few months. Once seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves, gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before transplanting to their permanent location in full sun with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Almata Apple Seeds\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795589693750,"sku":"FOLIA2-609","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6950439848_px4o.jpg?v=1792671803","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-almata-apple-seeds-rare-red-flesh-fruit-tree","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
