For this first task you have two options: you can recycle the seeds of a lemon that has already been consumed, giving them a second life, or you can buy them directly from a specialized store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Regardless of how you get your seeds, you will need a pot to grow them and soil to fill the container you choose. If it is the first option: it will be more practical to rinse the seeds to remove the small skin that covers them. Instead, prefer bottled water over tap water, especially if it is too chalky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once your seeds are ready to plant, you have two planting methods to choose from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first thing is to place them directly in the pot with soil and place them about 3 cm deep from the surface. This method is easier because you will not have to transplant when the seed has already germinated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The second method consists of placing a thin layer of moistened cotton in a small glass on top of the seeds and another on top of them. This speeds up the germination process. If you choose this method, you can have more controlled humidity and temperature, ideally between 20 and 25\u00b0C. Attention: the cotton must always remain damp. If it is dry, nothing will grow: so remember to moisten it regularly with a spray bottle. Typically, seeds take 5 to 8 days to germinate. Remove the second layer of cotton and place the seeds in the pot with soil. As we have already mentioned, thanks to its characteristics, lemon is excellent for your health, but it is also ideal for cleaning and perfuming the house. However, you will need to be patient while the seeds germinate, depending on the method used. The development of their growth will vary depending on the living conditions you give them, the humidity of the soil and the temperature where you plant them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lemon, like all citrus fruits, has a particular but very simple maintenance . If you want to have it in your home, we explain how to maintain it correctly to keep it in optimal conditions: Fertilizer is another important element when caring for your lemon tree. If you move it to a larger pot, you can put compost or worm castings at the bottom of it before transplanting it. You can do it once a year or every 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The land where you have your lemon tree must be permeable and aerated. The lemon tree needs a lot of water, but it needs soil to absorb it in the best possible way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The lemon tree is very sensitive to cold. That is why it should be cared for at room temperature. Lemon is most at home in Mediterranean climates, where temperatures typically range between 15 and 25 degrees. Humidity is another important factor to take into account: you should check your lemon tree regularly, because it needs a lot of water. If you get good soil with aeration and fluidity, you will be able to interpret your plant more easily. It is important to water slowly so that it absorbs the water, without flooding or forming puddles, so the soil will always remain moist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n NB <\/strong> : in a pot, the lemon tree dries out much faster than in the garden soil. Therefore, proper watering is essential. How to notice the lack of water? You will notice this if the lemon begins to split. Growing a potted lemon tree at home is a great idea to benefit from citrus. Remember to prune it when it grows to keep its shape fairly compact. During the growing period, every 15 days, it would be advisable to add a special citrus fertilizer to promote better fruiting. Finally, pay close attention to pests such as aphids or scale insects that attack the pot. The lemon tree is at risk of having a visible whitish mass on its foliage and lemons can rot prematurely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At home, our indoor plants not only have a decorative purpose, they are mainly decontaminating and thus purify the air we breathe.
