If you prefer the water germination method, follow these steps:
Soaking : After cleaning, soak the lemon seeds in water. You can use a glass or a small jar. Remember to change the water daily to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
Germination : In about a week, you will notice that the seeds swell and their first roots begin to sprout. Transplanting: Once your lemon seeds have sprouted, it’s time to plant them in a pot or seedling tray. The young seedlings will emerge quickly.
Key Considerations:
When planting the seeds in the tray, make sure they are placed horizontally.
The ideal soil mix consists of 60% coconut fiber and 40% worm castings. Select high quality seeds for germination.
Seeds that are too old or of poor quality may not sprout and could develop mold, affecting the others.
With patience and care, you can enjoy the process of growing your own lemon tree from seed. The reward of harvesting home-grown lemons is truly exceptional.
