I was sitting here eating some green grapes and I find a few seeds in them. I found four in all. I have an empty pot sitting inside. I was wondering if it was worth putting them into the soil. If they don't work out, I haven't wasted anything but time, but I was wondering if there was really any chance of them producing a plant that would one day give me grapes.

I doubt it. It would be very hard. The only way I know to grow grapes is by planting the root.

It is possible.

However grape seeds need a cold period before they will germinate. Putting them in your fridge for a few months will help. After that plant them and they should come up.

Depending on the variety and other factors they may not be true to the fruit you ate but who knows! Experiment it may be fun. What have you got to lose?
