Help with Lemon Tree (grown from seed)
Hello,
I live in northeastern Pennsylvania. Two years ago, I took a lemon seed (from a store-bought lemon), stuck it in a pot with regular potting soil, and now I have a 3-foot tall, skinny lemon tree with nice, fragrant leaves and some thorns. My problem is: I don't know how to take care of it from here. Should it be cut back? How tall will this thing grow? During the spring and summer, I leave it in an east-facing window all day, and turn it once a day. It has never been outdoors. It grows rapidly in the summer, and stops growing during the fall/winter. What is the best way to take care of my "baby"? This tree has become my pride and joy, since I never expected it to germinate, let alone grow into a tree!
