There is no 'might' about it. About the same odds as winning the jackpot lotto.
Why encourage these people to waste their time? If they had a one in ten chance
of
a decent apple, I might say try it, but the odds against it are more like 1 in
the tens
of thousands, or worse. People are going to reply that they had good luck with
certain stone fruits, etc., but these are different species of fruit with
different genetic
characteristics. Apples do not reproduce anything genetically close, directly
from
their seed. There are no shortcuts in growing apple trees. End of story.

My wife sowed some apple seeds from a grocery store apple, which germinated

more of an experiment for our young kids, but I am wondering if these things
are viable here.

Thanks.


Only way to know is to try them. They might be worthless, they might
be the next great thing. If you have the time, space, patience, then
why not let them grow?
