Lemon tastes sour and a little bitter. It's not a delicious fruit, but it has a high nutritional content. It's suitable for drinking in water, making seasoning when cooking and baking, putting it in the refrigerator or in the corner of the house and killing bacteria and odor.
Not only lemon fruit can eat, but also can keep healthy. The whole lemon tree will also send out fragrance, which can improve the air at home. Especially for high-rise apartments, raising a basin of lemon is fresh and healthy.
So, if you want to keep lemons at home, what do you need to do? Flowers to introduce you.
First, go to the Internet or flower shop to buy a lemon tree with good growth.
If you buy online, you need to remove the wooden frame after you buy it. Use pliers or a screwdriver to remove the wooden frame (it's better to find a man to operate it). Pay attention to the prickles of lemon trees with bare hands. You can wear gardening gloves to protect them.
After the frame is removed, check the fruit condition on the tree. Most of the fruit of Huahua is intact, and two of them are bruised. Express transportation is inevitable.
Cut off the lemon and the branches and leaves which are badly damaged and bumped. The flowers can't wait to be cut. It's really super fragrant. You need to swallow when you see the photos! I'll take it to soak honey immediately after I'm done. It's so fresh.~
It's almost pruned. You can find a proper flowerpot. It doesn't need to be too big (4-gallon flowerpot). You can just put the lemon in it. Take off the original simple flowerpot and add some rotten leaf soil or nutritious soil to it.
It's estimated that you don't know much about lemons, so you don't need to worry about maintenance. You can put them in the window (with good ventilation) at home after pouring them into the basin. Usually, you need to wait for the basin soil to dry before watering, about once a week, and less in rainy days.
In the warm winter area of South China (above - 5 ℃ in winter), the land can be planted, and the length of planting is larger and the result is more, which is the natural advantage. Don't be discouraged. Potted plants can grow for many years.
When lemon comes to late autumn, its fruit will be more and more yellow. When it turns golden, it can be picked. The lemon can be washed, sliced and made into tea. It can also be sliced, marinated with sugar and honey, and dried for storage.
