How do I plant orange and lemon seeds and how long does it take them to sprout?

Answer 1

They should sprout within 20-30 days, given enough warmth (above 70F) and moisture. However, it will take years for them to mature. You can buy citrus trees, including lemons (I like the Meyer lemons best) and oranges from most nurseries and catalogs. If you are wanting to harvest fruit anytime soon, that would probably be your best bet. They range in price between 5.00 and 20.00, depending on the nursery.

Answer 2

Plunk em in dirt, add water, south window. They'll sprout in 2 weeks to a month. Bad news is it will take years for them to mature and bear fruit. Fun to watch grow though.
