Lemon Tree

[kashif]

Thanks M Farooq and Mustansir for your guidance, i think i can go by cow manure and fungicide root first and wait for week or two to see any improvements my neighbor look at the plant and said that i overwatered the plant and plant itself is in transplanted shock, if not than i ll buy and try npk 20 20 20.
Thanks again guys for help and info

cheers

Could lemon tree can be grown from from seeds? If yes! then what is the proper method. If No!then how it is grown. The nursery man told that it can not be grown from seeds...

They can be grown from seeds or cuttings. Take a fully ripe lemon, take out it's seeds and air dry for few days; sow it like an ordinary seed. The only draw back it is that it will take a long time to see its fruits.

how much long time??

[M Farooq]

"how much long time?

More than 5-6 years at least. Some people say more than ten years. I grew few lemons, they easily grew from seeds but we had to shift the house...perhaps they died during shifting.

Ohhhh! That is long time. I have never talked about this

My lemon tree is finally dying and I coudn't do any thing other than just to watch it. . I have tried fungicide organic and inorganic but both were of no use...

Sorry to hear that that but it seems it died due to over-care. Lemon is a pretty robust tree. If your plant were in a pot then, it is even more susceptible to overdose of fertilizers or pesticides. Next time, buy a more mature tree from the nursery.

I know how it feels...most of my favourite trees and plants have died not due to over-care but negligence :-(

Very well said M.Farooq and lemon plant doesn't like too much water,only watered when the above one inch surface is dry, my lemon tree was doing well after i sprayed pesticide one time and reduce watering and its started producing leaves until its bent at 45 degree angle from wind so i straigthen up the tree again but its stop producing leaves again but stem looks green so i m still hopefull , and sorry to hear about yr tree mustansir, all the best
