I have not tried this method yet, thanks for the info! Hoping to try it sooner or later.Did you try just putting the seeds in a pot with some other plant, and leaving them to do their own thing? I'm pretty sure I had success with that at some point in the past.
The reason for putting them in with another plant is so they get watered (because I'm better at watering plants than I am at watering pots of bare-looking dirt.)
I think I had lemon and apple at one point, and someone I know did some kind of citrus more recently. I have no idea how many seeds were planted each time to get one or two plants, and I have no idea how long they took to sprout.
I gave them more than 7 days to sprout, but still nothing. Everywhere I searched it said that lemon seeds will sprout as early as 5 days after being soaked in the paper towel or after being directly planted into soil…I have not specifically researched lemons, but I know that some kinds of seeds take MUCH longer than that to sprout.
So the two whole seeds I found wouldn’t be viable for growing?They call them "seedless" oranges for a reason
I mentioned above that I waited for some of the cucs to get a bit older…some were almost turning yellow, but I guess I didn’t wait long enough.They have to grow a lot more before you can get good seeds out of them.
By that point, no-one wants to eat them, so you do not see them in the grocery store.
Thanks for all the helpful information!
