As we said, lemon trees are some of the easiest and spectacular <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/best-indoor-trees/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trees to grow indoors</a></strong>, but this does not mean you should not pay your full attention to their germination and propagation!</p>
<p>This article stands as a step by step guide to help you grow a lemon tree from seed.</p>
<p>First, well go through all the items you will need to make sure the lemon seeds germinate, and then well go into detail on how to make the seeds sprout and show healthy growth.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><em>How to Grow a Lemon Tree from Seed: What You Need</em></h2>
<p>Without further ado, <strong>here are the items you should have at hand before planting lemon seeds:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>One or two lemons; we recommend the organic varieties that suffered less treatments with pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers;</li>
<li>A ziplock bag and a paper towel (for the paper towel method);</li>
<li>Sterile<em><strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Gro-Potting-Currently-Northeastern-Midwestern/dp/B07Q9PYSBZ/?tag=youhadmeatgardening-20"> citrus soil mix</a></strong></em> OR <em><strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Premier-Horticulture-0280P-Retail-Cubic/dp/B07P1X9NBR/?tag=youhadmeatgardening-20">peat</a></strong></em>, <em><strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/GROW-JSPERL22-Perlite-Course-Hydroponic/dp/B071WLPMWT/?tag=youhadmeatgardening-20">perlite</a></strong></em>, <em><strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Hoffman-15503-Canadian-Sphagnum-Quarts/dp/B0000CBITW/?tag=youhadmeatgardening-20">vermiculite</a></strong></em>, and <em><strong><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Espoma-4-Pound-Citrus-Tone-5-2-6-2-Pack/dp/B07P1BRD79/?tag=youhadmeatgardening-20">organic fertilizer</a></strong></em>;</li>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>Method #1:</strong></em> Germinate Seeds in a <em><strong>Paper Towel</strong></em></h3>
</div>
</section><div class="the-content">
<section class="columns">
<div class="columns__col"><p>I tried planting lemon seeds with the paper towel method during this winter and I was surprised by how simple and effective it is. I had a 90% success rate with germinating lemon seeds in a paper towel.</p>
<h3><strong>1. Gather the seeds</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>Cut the lemon and gather its plumpest seeds.</li>
</ul>
<p>Keep in mind some of them might not germinate so you&#8217;ll need more than one; I recommend trying this with a minimum of 5 seeds.</p>
<ul>
<li>Clean off the pulp from the seeds, then rinse them with warm water and dry them with a paper towel.</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>2. Peel off the white skin from the seeds</strong> (OPTIONAL)</h3>
<p>This accelerates germination since the tiny sprout doesnt have to break through the skin anymore makes sense, right?<br />
Be careful, though, not to cut through the seeds or you might puncture the sprout inside.</p>

</div><div class="the-content">
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Some tutorials on how to grow lemon trees from seeds also recommend peeling off the second (brown) skin layer to accelerate the sprouting process even further. I didnt do this, but I dont think it would hurt if youre careful enough not to puncture, cut, or break off the <strong><a href="https://www.britannica.com/science/cotyledon-plant-anatomy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cotyledons</a></strong>.</p>

<div class="columns__col"><h3><strong>3. Wrap the seeds in a moist paper towel &amp; seal them in a bag</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>Place the seeds about one inch apart on a paper towel and carefully cover them with another paper towel.</li>
<li>Wrap them up gently and spray the paper towel until its wet.</li>
<li>Then, seal the whole thing in a plastic bag and write down the current date on the bag.</li>
</ul>
<p>Its okay to leave some air inside the bag in fact, most tutorials online recommend this practice as the seeds need moisture, warmth, and air to sprout.</p>

<h3><strong>4. Place the bag in a warm, shaded spot</strong></h3>
<p>Your lemon seeds dont need light at this stage, but they do need plenty of warmth and moisture, as mentioned before. Keep them out of cold or drafty spots in your home to accelerate the sprouting process.</p>
<h3>5. After 2-4 weeks or when the roots are at least 1.5-2 inches long, the seeds are ready to be planted in soil</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%200%200'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-lazy-src="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/read-for-soil.jpg" /><noscript><img class="aligncenter" src="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/read-for-soil.jpg" /></noscript></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Day 14</p>
</div><div class="the-content">
<p>Heres what to do about a month after germinating lemon seeds with the paper towel method (i.e. when the roots are over 1.5 inches long):</p>
<h3>1. Prepare soil and one pot for each seedling</h3>
<ul>
<li>The pots should be at least 3 inches in diameter and at least 5 inches tall.</li>
<li>The ideal soil mix should have a pH of 5.5 to 6.5.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can use the citrus soil mix from <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/best-potting-soil/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miracle-Gro</a></strong> or make your own using the ingredients listed at the top in even quantities.</p>
</div><div class="the-content">
<section class="columns">
<div class="columns__col"><h3>2. Carefully separate the seedlings from the paper towel</h3>
<p>Its okay if they only have roots, the plants will grow if provided the proper care described below. Also, some paper towel stuck to the roots is fine it happened to my seedlings as well and it doesnt affect growth. Dont risk breaking off a root just because theres a bit of paper stuck to it, its not worth it.</p>
<h3>3. Plant the seedlings about one inch deep</h3>
<p>When making the holes in the soil, also take the length of the roots into account. When covering the seedlings, gently pat down the soil.</p>
<p>Do not press too hard or you might break off the roots. Allowing the soil to be a bit loose gives proper access to nutrients, moisture, and air and helps the plants develop healthy root systems.</p>
<h3>4. Keep the soil permanently damp until 4-5 leaves appear on each plant</h3>
<p>During this time, gradually move the plants to a sunny window in your home. The ideal spot for a lemon tree is right in front of a south-facing window for maximum sunlight exposure, so try to move them closer and closer to their future spot. If you want to make the lemon tree your next <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/best-office-plants/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">best office plant for stunning interior design</a></strong>, keep in mind to move the plant regularly until it reaches the ideal place.</p>
<p>Be careful not to burn them, though! Unfortunately, I dont have any direct sunlight in my apartment, but mine has been doing wonderfully under a neon lamp!</p>
<h3>5. Afterward, allow the first inch of soil (but no more) to dry out between waterings</h3>
<p>Dont let the whole pot of soil dry out, this will surely kill your plant as lemon trees are tropical plants and love moisture.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><em>How to Grow a Lemon Tree From Seed: Method 2</em></h3>
<h4 style="text-align: center;">Method #2: Germinating Lemon Seeds in the <em><b>Soil</b></em></h4>
</div>
</section><div class="the-content">
<p>I did not try this method beforehand because I had a pretty good success rate with the paper towel, but many people vouch for this method and strategy.</p>
<p>Unlike the paper towel method, germinating seeds directly in the soil might give them a better chance at survival since they wont go through <strong><a href="https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/environmental/learn-how-to-avoid-and-repair-transplant-shock-in-plants.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">transplant shock</a></strong>.</p>
<h3><strong>1. Gather the seeds</strong></h3>
<p>Pick the biggest, healthiest-looking seeds out of a lemon and clean the pulp off, then rinse them with warm water and dry them off.</p>
<h3><strong>2. Peel off their skin (OPTIONAL)</strong></h3>
<p>The seeds will germinate faster if the sprouts dont have to break through the seeds skin as well. Another way to speed up lemon seed germination is to soak the seeds in warm water overnight.</p>
<h3><strong>3. Prepare the pots and soil</strong></h3>
<p>The ideal pot for one seed is 3-4 inches in diameter and 5-6 inches tall, while the <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/best-potting-soil/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">perfect soil mix</a></strong> for planting lemon seeds has a pH between 5.5 and 6.5. You can use the items listed at the beginning of this article to make your own soil.</p>
<h3><strong>4. Plant the lemon seeds about 1 inch deep</strong></h3>
<p>The pointy tip should be oriented downwards. Cover the seeds with soil and gently pat it down. The soil should be a bit loose to allow air and moisture circulation.</p>
<h3><strong>5. Seal the pot with cling wrap and poke a few small holes</strong></h3>
<p>This will trap some much-needed moisture and warmth while also allowing the seeds and soil to breathe.</p>
<h3><strong>6. Remove the cling wrap when sprouts come out of the soil and place in a warm, sunny location</strong></h3>
<p>Keep the soil permanently moist until the plant(s) have about 4-5 leaves, then water about once a week. No more than the first inch of the soil should dry out.</p>

<p>You can transplant the plants after about a year or when several roots peek through the drainage holes of the pot.</p>
<p>Before we wrap up our guide today, let&#8217;s take a look at the most frequently asked questions we received from you, our lovely community of casual gardeners!</p>
<h2>How to Grow a Lemon Tree from Seed: FAQs</h2>
<p>The answers below will also help you have a clear and simple picture of how to grow a lemon tree from seed.</p>
<h3>1. Can I plant lemon seeds from store-bought lemons?</h3>
<p>Yes. Store-bought lemons are affordable sources for lemon seeds that you can grow inside to turn into lemon trees. However, we recommend you buy a couple of organic lemons. Due to the treatments they go through, non-organic lemons usually come with non-germinating seeds.</p>
<h3>2. Does a lemon tree grown indoors from seeds produce lemon fruit?</h3>
<p>Usually, no. The best results you can expect when you grow a lemon tree from seeds is to have a <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/best-indoor-trees/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">luxuriant indoor tree</a></strong> yielding gorgeous flowers. If the seed is of high-quality and you meet all the germinating, sprouting, and <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/indoor-lemon-tree-care-guide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lemon tree care guidelines</a></strong>, you may have the great surprise of enjoying lemon fruits as well. However, you have to have patience and keep your hopes to a minimum level to avoid disappointment. Just as our expert in citrus care says, your lemon tree will probably want to spend most of its time outside. If you can only grow it indoors, follow the care instructions to a tee and you may enjoy fresh lemon juice from your own production soon enough.</p>
<h3>3. How long does a lemon tree grown from seed take to produce lemons?</h3>
<p>After you plant your lemon tree, you should wait about three years before it can produce lemons you can actually pick up and use for consumption. When you grow a lemon tree from seed, no matter the method, you should expect three to six years before it becomes capable of producing edible fruits. The secret is to care for your lemon tree with the utmost attention.</p>
<h3>4. Can I grow a lemon tree from dry seeds?</h3>
<p>We do not recommend this approach. The best chance you have to grow a lemon tree is to germinate the seeds as soon as you took them out from your fresh lemon. The drier the seeds, the smaller are the chances they will germinate.</p>
<h3>5. Can you grow a lemon tree from cuttings as well?</h3>
<p>Lemon trees and citrus trees, in general, propagate well if you use cuttings. Nevertheless, keep in mind that if you choose this method over buying a commercially grown lemon tree, yours will most likely show less resistance in the face of common lemon tree diseases.</p>
<h3>6. Which is the best fertilizer for lemon trees grown indoors?</h3>
<p>Keep in mind that a lemon tree needs a lot of nitrogen to grow well. Experts recommend you should feed your lemon tree <strong>every 6-8 weeks</strong> all year long. For more information on how to water and fertilize an indoor lemon tree, <strong><a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/indoor-lemon-tree-care-guide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">check out this guide here</a></strong>!</p>
<h3>7. Can I feed Epsom salt to my lemon tree?</h3>
<p>If your lemon tree suffers a magnesium deficiency, Epsom salt is a good soil amendment to solve this issue. The magnesium levels are crucial for a lemon tree&#8217;s capacity to yield fruits. However, before you start conditioning and amending the soil of a lemon tree, make sure you test it first and learn about the potential deficiencies.</p>
<h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2>
<p>Now you know how to grow lemon trees from scratch! I hope youll have as much success as I did with germinating and planting lemon seeds.</p>
<p>In fact, Im looking forward to reading about your experience with these techniques! Let us know how it went for you in the comment section of this article.</p>

<p>Hi, Roberta! </p>
<p>When it comes to blooming, the most important thing is the amount of sunlight your lemon tree receives. As you may know, lemon trees need a lot of sunlight to grow and thrive. However, there are also other important factors like pruning, fertilizing, temperature, and watering. You can find all the info you need in <a href="https://youhadmeatgardening.com/indoor-lemon-tree-care-guide/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Darren&#8217;s article on how to care for a lemon tree</strong></a>.</p>

<p>Hi, awesome to hear that! There&#8217;s no exact number on how many times you should water it per day, as it depends on other factors like temperature, soil type, pot size, etc. Just make sure the soil is moist and not completely dried out. Also, a spray bottle might work at first, but won&#8217;t be enough once the root system starts to develop.</p>

<p>Ive managed to accidentally grow 5 lemon trees from seeds. Well they are still seedlings, approx 3 inches tall but they are doing well. I just thought Id test to see if theyd grow, not expecting them to at all. They were in one of my veggie gardens, but tonight I have transplanted them under a grow light as the place they began in is in too harsh conditions in the heat. We have 45 degree Celsius weather and it burnt some of the leaves. I will give them a couple of weeks to get stronger and then transplant them into their final pots. Fingers crossed my green thumbs are still alive!</p>

<p>My seeds germinated beautifully from the paper towel method. I planted them in small pots. They are growing fast. They are long and lanky. They&#8217;re standing up strong and proud but is this normal? Will they eventually get too top heavy and should I transplant them in slightly larger pots and bury them deeper into the soil? I wish I could send a picture. Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Hi Chrissy! We are sorry to hear your tries haven&#8217;t been successful. You could try with a less damp paper towel, or have a go at method 2. Alterntievly, you could grow a lemon tree from cuttings as well. Keep us posted on how it goes!</p>

<p>Hi! Can I put my seedlings directly into soil? I have read that some people put their seedlings in eggshells filled with soil first until they sprout out of the soil &#8211; any thoughts on this? Also, when covering the pot with cling film, where should I place the pot? Still in a warm sunny location? Thanks!!</p>

<p>Hi Kanisha! Thank you for your questions! You can plant your seeds directly into soil, see method 2 for how to do that. Some gardeners plant their seeds into eggshells and then the seedlings and eggshells into pots after two weeks with some success. Give it a try and let us know how it worked! The seedlings leaves shouldn&#8217;t be put in direct sunlight at first, so keep your covered pots at room temperature and away from direct sunlight. Gradually move them to a sunny spot after they have 4-5 leaves.</p>

<p>Hi Ann, thank you for your question! As we said in our guide, you should slowly and progressively move the seedlings closer to the sunny spot, but only after they have their first leaves. Be careful when moving the pots, as the leaves can burn if they take too much sun too fast.</p>

<p>hi there!<br />
I feel discouraged of so many articles saying lemon tree grown from seed will probably won&#8217;t bear fruit. So Maybe there are other ways to make a &#8220;not-bearing-fruit-lemon-tree&#8221; bear fruit.<br />
Will the cutting from a lemon tree grown from seed bear fruit? Should I graft it? should I do Marcotting from that tree to start a new one?</p>

<p>Hi Lannie, thank you for your comment! Don&#8217;t feel discouraged, lemon trees usually require patience. It takes a seed-grown lemon tree about 6 years to bear fruit, in ideal conditions. Cutting-grown lemon trees also bear fruit, but they too need time to get big enough for that.</p>

<p>I used the paper towel method anomy seeds are not in soil and starting to sprout, but they are sprouting on the the sides of their pots. Should I be concerned, or move them to the center again?<br />

<p>Hello Sonja! Thank you for your comment, we are glad your lemon tree is going so well! Lemon trees take years before they bear fruit. In ideal conditions, a lemon tree takes up to 6 years before it starts yielding fruit. Experts advise patience with outdoor lemon trees. If yours bears fruit, we would love to hear from you and see some pictures!</p>

<p>I have currencly 5 seedlings that are 3 months old and from 3-4 inches tall. I tried both with-seed skin and without skin seeds, the without skin seeds germinated faster and are an inch taller than the with skin seeds. I live in northern europe and with autumn starting I have put them indoors on a window sill. I plan to repot them in bigger pots in spring.</p>

<p>My little lemon tree, grown from seed, with 6 leaves, so far, has little fly like creatures lurking about in the soil. There doesn&#8217;t seem to be any damage to the plant. Should I repot it?</p>

<p>Hello Tarina! Thank you for contacting us. It seems you have a fungus gnat situation, try removing and replacing the top inch of soil with sand or gravel. Fungus gnats usually appear when you overwater your lemon tree, so try watering it less frequently. If you have an infestation on your hands, you could also try setting some sticky traps or repotting the plant altogether in fresh, well-draining soil. Hope this helps and keep us posted!</p>
