How do you grow lemon seeds? Select naturally ripe lemon fruit for seed extraction and sowing

Select naturally ripe lemon fruit to take seeds, then select a few full-grained seeds, wash the film off the seeds by hand, soak them in clean water for about 7 days, and then sow them into the soil. After about a week, the lemon seeds will become seedlings and drill out of the soil, water every day to ensure the soil moisture, clean up the poorly developed seedlings in the basin, and determine the density according to personal preference. You can also sow the seeds directly into the soil for planting.

Lemons are easy to grow, and their fruits can be eaten, processed into fruit juices, used for cooking, and look good when they bloom, so they have a certain ornamental value. If you plant lemons, you can succeed by sowing the seeds directly. You can sow the seeds directly into the soil to germinate and grow on their own, or you can use wet paper towels and plastic bags to accelerate the germination before planting.

The method of planting lemon seed

1. Seed selection

Select the fully naturally ripe fruit lemon, take out the seeds from the fruit, if you choose the lemon fruit that has not yet completed the natural ripening, then the germination rate and survival rate of the seeds are low.

2. Seed extraction

After taking out the seeds in the fruit, choose full and complete lemon seeds. In order to prevent a small number of lemon seeds from sprouting, it is best to choose more lemon seeds.

3. Treatment of seeds

Scrub the film off the lemon seed by hand, but avoid hurting the budding point of the seed when scrubbing, and you can also remove the shell of the seed, but if you are not sure, it is best not to do so so as not to hurt the budding point.

4. Sprouting

Soak the lemonade in clear water for about 7 days, then move it to a warm place without direct sunlight to promote sprouting. Change the water once a day. If you don't want to soak, you can also plant the lemon seeds in a flowerpot.

5. Sowing seeds

After soaking for a week, the lemon seeds can be sowed in the flowerpot and watered every day to ensure that the soil is moist, the planting density can be slightly higher, and the soil in the pot should choose loose, fertile and breathable soil.

6. Daily management

After sowing for a week, the lemon seed will become a small seedling and drill out of the soil. After a period of growth and development, clean up the poorly developed seedlings in the basin. If you like density, you can leave a few more, and if you do not like too dense, leave a few. If you want the plant to bear fruit, you can leave one in the basin.

The value of lemon seed

Lemon seeds can not only be used to plant potted plants, but also have certain medicinal and cosmetic effects. The eye cream made of lemon seeds has a very good effect on moisturizing and removing fine lines from the corners of the eyes.

Matters needing attention

Directly planting seeds is not easy to bear fruit, if you want the plant to bear fruit, you need to graft good varieties, and master the techniques of planting and pruning lemons.
