The Apricot experiment

I have just cracked open three apricot stones and have set them to sprout… I shall have to wait a while to see if anything happens but the almonds didn't take long. I have done a photo shoot of my garden but only have time for this quick upload of the apricots.  I will upload my garden photos tonight.

The one on the left hasn't dried yet. It needs a few days before I crack it open

Place the kernels onto a piece of kitchen paper

Fold it up and give it a splash of water. Put it in a plastic tub or polythene bag.


And now you wait.  Check it after about three or four days. It will probably take a little longer than that.  If it starts to go mould throw it away and try again

  1. I love growing things from seed and pips but the garden is as stuffed as can be so I have to exercise some control.
