The most important thing when choosing a container is to make sure it has large unobstructed drainage holes. Lemon trees need excellent drainage for a happy life.
Your indoor lemon tree wants its soil to stay evenly moist, so using a potting mix designed for citrus trees will produce the best results.
This type of soil drains well while retaining the moisture needed.
Watering:
Lemon trees like plenty of water. You want to keep the roots moist but never waterlogged.
Fertilizing:
Fertilizing your indoor lemon tree regularly will be important for producing fruit and strong foliage.
– Humidity is a friend of citrus plants.– Lemon trees like airflow (consistent with the air temp).– Your lemon tree needs powerful sunlight to be induced to bloom and have the strength to produce fruit. 8-12 hours is ideal.
