I have posted this before, but here is an option for direct seeding.

Take a soup can and cut an X in the bottom of it.( larger coffee can size for walnuts).
Tip the flaps from the X cut outward( or upward).

Plant your seeds in their final location inside of the buried and inverted can. The can will protect most seeds from getting dug out. After emergence, protect with screen or tree tubes, weed mats, etc.

I did this with walnuts over 30 years ago and the tin cans rusted away and did not girdle the trees. I imagine you could split the sides of the can before planting, for very fast growing trees.

I have not tried this with apple seeds. I suspect it is better for acorns, walnuts, etc
