How to grow lemon in a cup?

  1. Obtain the seeds from 5 to 10 lemons, selecting them carefully to discard any damaged or cut ones.
  2. Put the seeds in a glass of water and discard any that float: you will only need those that settle at the bottom of the glass.
  3. Dry the seeds well with absorbent paper.
  4. Put some damp, dark potting soil in a cup, then place the seeds in until almost all of the topsoil is covered.
  5. Cover with a layer of small gravel.
  6. Seedlings will appear after about 10-15 days. From this moment on, water every morning with a bottle equipped with a spray diffuser.
