Here’s how to grow lemons at home.

What will you need?

1 lemon

· Potting soil

· A container

plastic movie

A sunny space

How to proceed?

To start, cut the lemon in half and remove the seeds. Clean them properly to remove any pulp residue and place them in a container filled with water. Leave it for 6 to 7 days, taking care to change the water daily. After soaking the seeds in water for a week, remove them, they are ready to use!

Make small holes in the bottom of your container so the water can flow properly. Then place the soil in a bucket and add a little water to moisten it. After you have thoroughly moistened your soil, pour it into your container, leaving about 2 to 3 centimeters of space at the edge.

Plant your seeds (they should still be moist) about 1 centimeter deep in the center of the pot. Then spray your potting soil with water and cover your container with your plastic wrap. Use a rubber band to seal the edges tightly and poke small holes in your film with a pencil. Place the pot in a warm, bright location, but do not expose it to direct sunlight yet.
