<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<\/h1>\n\n\n\nTo have home-grown lemons, you don’t need a garden or a pot. A small cup will allow you to enjoy these citrus fruits, ideal to consume in cold weather. By following these instructions, you will have beautiful plantations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If this guide that teaches you how to plant a lemon tree in a cup seems ingenious to you, it is because the classic cultivation method can take years<\/strong> to grow. To have a miniature tree, you will need to ask your nurseryman for dwarf citrus varieties that can flourish in small containers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To grow this source of nutrients in your home, it is important to follow these rules. They will allow you to witness the germination of young shoots quickly. To do this, use beautiful seeds from 5-10 lemons. Then, pour them into a glass of water and get rid of any that float because they will not serve for a quality fruit tree . Then dry the seeds with a paper towel. In a cup, put some black, moist compost and place the seeds there that you will cover with this organic matter<\/strong>. All you have to do is place small gravel in the container. Keep the mug near a sunny window. Wait 15 days and you can have beautiful seedlings. However, only water the plant when the soil appears dry. You can finally repot the cup to have a beautiful houseplant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n To transplant these small lemon trees, the pot must be 25% larger than the plant. It is better to choose a clay pot because it is more porous and allows water to evaporate better. And for good reason, fruit tree roots tend to rot if there is too much water. For berries to grow well<\/strong> , you will also need to choose the soil carefully. The latter must contain organic matter such as compost or old manure to provide the necessary elements for growth. To have good fruiting, the soil must be well drained but have a pH that is between 5.5 and 7. To measure the acidity you will need a pH meter that you can get at a garden store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For good growth of the lemon tree, watering must be daily. Only you will need to be careful not to give too much or too little water for this small tree to survive. To check that the plant has every chance of growing well<\/strong> , touch the top layer of soil. If it is dry, it will have to be sprinkled. It will be necessary to water more often in hot weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If citrus fruits can grow with enriched soil, you will be able to witness their fruiting more quickly by using the right fertilizers. Among them, those that are slow release such as NPK 12-6-6 or 20-20-20 that fertilize the soil well. You can also add iron, zinc or manganese<\/strong> to enrich the latter. Soluble fertilizer is also an effective alternative for good growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To harvest this nutrient-rich citrus fruit , you just have to wait for the lemons to be<\/strong> ripe . You will be able to see it by touch once this food is very yellow, heavy and slightly soft. All you have to do is press!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here’s how to grow a lemon tree in a cup that will perfume the entire house Did you know that you can grow nice fragrant lemons in a small cup?
