Inducing dormancy in small apple seedling

10 years ago

I planted an apple seed in early fall and I would like it to go dormant now so that it gets the required chill period. I just want to make sure I go about it the right way.

If I put it into my cellar which is above zero but has zero light, will that cause the seedling to die? Should I just wait for temperatures to be consistently above zero outside and then put it outside to make it go dormant?

Thanks for any help.
