Here are some ways to make the most of them.
After using the lemon, save the seeds and rinse them carefully with water at room temperature, using a strainer. Then, spread them out on a paper towel and dry them completely. Next, take some tweezers and remove the film covering them.
Take a small container, like a yogurt cup, and fill it with damp cotton wool. Place the seed on top of the cotton wool and let it sit for at least a week. After about 7 days, the seed will give way to a small sprout.
Continue to keep the cotton wool moist and create a humid environment to further encourage the growth of your little sprout until it develops roots. At this point, transplant the seed into a small pot, using a mixture of potting soil and perlite to ensure good drainage of the soil. The sprout will require constant care, such as a well-lit location, heat and protection from drafts. Make sure the soil remains constantly moist and wait for nature to take its course, eventually getting a lemon seedling that will give you delicious fruit.
Additionally, lemon seeds can be used to create a drawer and cabinet freshener. After washing, citrus seeds retain their natural scent for a long time. You can place them in a canvas bag and use them to scent drawers, closets, or even rooms like the bathroom.
