From Seed To Fruit Update 4 - Apples

in #seedling3 years ago

We're back for a fourth instalment on the apple seedlings and have some great news. The second seedling in the cup has broken through the top layer of soil. Thanks to @kenny-crane we now have a wonderfully apt name for the first seedling. I knight thee, Sir Johnny Appleseed his namesake being John Chapman. Following on in this vain the second apple seed will hereby be known as Patty Appleseed named for John's sister.

It's fascinating, every time I change the position of the cup, Johnny and Patty bend towards the light changing shape and directional growth. I had no idea that plants did this. Makes sense though.

Johnny, Patty and their sibling seedlings all look healthy and happy, as happy as a phototropic sprout can look! :) Thanks for sharing the pics!

Thanks. They are getting bigger and stronger by the day. Hope you had a nice christmas.

Thanks, I did have a nice Christmas, hope you did too!

I had a nice, quiet, uneventful christmas. Watched some movies and listened to some music. Couldn't ask for much more than that.😁👍
