    I would`nt be very concerned of them seeding, don`t think seed will be on your potato`s long enough to ripen

     I assume by potato apples you mean the little green fruits - as the previous correspondant points out these will not be ripe enough to germinate, but you should take care to dispose of them if there is any likelyhood of children (or adults) eating them as they are poisonous !!
