One gardening tip for your newly sprouted lemon trees. Use a fertilizer called Neptune’s Harvest. It will cause your seedling to take off and grow faster.
Lemons sprout easily from the seed found inside the fruit, but growing a lemon tree from a seed just because you can isn’t always smart.
If you want to go ahead and plant a lemon seed, then they are grown the same way as mandarins and other citrus.
Do not set the seeds aside to dry like regular seeds.
Drying lemon tree seeds reduces the germination rate drastically.
Wash the seed in plain water to remove any sugar sticking to the seed coat.
Place the seed in a cup of warm water and let it soak overnight.
To store the citrus seeds, place them on a moist paper towel.
Keep about three times the amount of seeds that you want to plant in case some of them are not viable.
Wrap the seeds in the damp paper towel and place them inside a sealable plastic bag. Place the bag in the refrigerator.
Keep your growing lemon tree seeds in an area that is around 70 degrees F. (21 C.); the top of the fridge is ideal.
Once the seedlings emerge, move the container into brighter light and remove the plastic.
When the seedlings have several sets of leaves, transplant them to larger, 4- to 6-inch (10-15 cm.) pots
