How do i plant an orange tree from its seeds?

Question

do i eat an orange and put all seven seeds in a pot with dirt. or do i just use one seed?

and how much water and sunlight does it need

Answer 1

Use one in a pot. If it will give 2 offsets, leave only one. It needs much sunlight and wet soil.

Answer 2

Depends on how many trees you want. Try all the seeds and if all come up, give a couple away as gifts when they are large enough. They need good rich soil but don't let them stand in water but enough to keep the soil moist but not real wet. 6 to 8 hours of full sun a day is minimum requirements so let them get all they can. They do get large so hope you have a high ceiling or can put them outdoors later. If you prune them as they grow, you can keep them from getting too tall but they will spread more that way also. Good luck.

Answer 3

Grafting is the prepare of attaching a fruiting or flowering species onto a root,an undemanding technique with fruit bushes and roses. Planting an orange pip will eventualy produce a sensible ornamental pot plant,in spite of the undeniable fact that that's honestly not fertile nor undergo fruit.

Answer 4

Use one seed, water as needed, and 6 hours sunlight per day, minimum. Plant several and you have better chances that one or more will thrive. Good luck!
