How can you wash an apple tree from the seed?

 

Although it is hard to believe, there is very low cyanide in the seeds of the most popular fruit. The importance of consuming it in its proper measure

The apple, along with the orange and the banana, are the fruits most consumed in Western and Eastern diets. The famous "forbidden fruit" of the Bible was present in the interaction of the first human beings that inhabited the planet. Beyond its symbolic content, it is one of the most popular fruits incorporated into the daily diet of many people.

I always remember that in my childhood the classic dessert in my house were apples baked in the oven. Although one thinks of dessert as a rich sweet, we incorporated the apple into different cakes, accompanying the snacks and turning the apple into a fun fruit.

It is surprising to know that the seeds of this fruit contain a very small amount of cyanide, a deadly chemical. Cyanide is one of the most well-known poisons and damages several organs such as the brain and the heart, affecting health and even causing death. The symptoms of a cyanide poisoning are nausea, vomiting, headache, heart and respiratory failure.

The cyanide contained in the seeds is protected by the hard consistency of the seeds

Swallowing the seeds without chewing them is not a problem, since they are eliminated directly. When swallowed, you will eliminate them intact, and if you chew and break them, the amount of cyanide present is so minimal that the body is responsible for detoxification without causing any consequences. So rest assured: if you swallow the seeds, do not worry.

Making an extreme calculation to quantify the effect of cyanide in our body, we could say that according to CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States) a fatal dose for a person of 70 kilograms is 1 or 2 milligram per kilo.

Therefore, to consume a fatal dose, a person should eat approximately 20 "hearts" of apples or 200 well-chewed apple seeds

How to plant your tree with the apple seed

Have you ever wondered if you can take the seeds of an apple and plant them in your garden? The answer is yes, of course you can do it! However, in order for you to get apples from the seeds you will need effort, patience and a little planning. Continue reading to learn how to grow and care for your own apple tree.

First part

Gather two different types of seeds. The apple tree should be planted in groups of two to bear fruit, because the apple tree does not self-pollinate, so you will need a different type of apple tree to pollinate. You can get the seeds of an apple that you are going to eat or you can also buy them in the store. Keep in mind that if you plant the tree with the seeds that you got from an apple, it will not necessarily guarantee that the tree born of these seeds will bear fruit. Collect or buy seeds that adapt to your area, otherwise the tree could die very fast.

• It is recommended that you buy a young apple tree in the nursery instead of trying to sow it from its seed.
• If you want to plant an apple tree from its seed, you must also bear in mind that it can grow very tall (about 9 meters or 30 feet at its maximum height). If you think you have enough space in your yard for a tree of that size, perfect! You should also bear in mind that trees that are born from the seed could take between 8 to 10 years to bear fruit, while a young transplanted tree will bear fruit in a much shorter period of time

Dry the seeds. When you have extracted the seeds of the fruit and you have eliminated any piece of fruit adhering to them, it will be time to put them to dry. This means drying them in the air until there is no moisture in the shell.

Cover the seeds with a damp paper towel. Put the paper towel and the seeds in a sealed plastic bag, in a jar with a lid or in a pan. Whatever the container, make sure you can close it

• You can also use wet moss peat instead of paper towels.

Put the seeds in the fridge. The seeds need a period of exposure to cold temperatures called "post-ripening". Basically, it's a simulated winter. During this time, the seeds will begin to sprout and take root. They must remain in that environment for 8 weeks or more. Keep the seeds at a temperature between 4.4 ° C to 10 ° C (40 ° F to 50 ° F), with the optimum temperature being 4.4 ° C to 5 ° C (40 ° F to 41 ° F).

• If possible, perform this procedure when it is really winter so that when you take the seeds out of the fridge they are aligned with the actual seasons. Planting the seed buds in the first days of spring after the last frosts will allow you to obtain better results.

Check from time to time to make sure the towel is still wet. After 8 weeks, the seeds should have sprouted and developed small roots that come out from the bottom of the seed. When the seeds sprout, remove them from the refrigerator.
