Practical growing tips
- Sowing and germination: sow in place after the last frosts, in well-prepared and slightly warm soil. Expect active germination in 7 to 14 days depending on the temperature.
- Location and soil: full sun, rich in organic matter and well-drained soil. A pH between 6 and 7 is ideal for optimal development.
- Spacing: allow 40 to 50 cm between plants; in pots, choose a deep and stable container, with support if necessary.
- Watering and nutrition: water regularly to keep the soil slightly moist without leaving standing water. Apply a balanced fertilizer every 3 to 4 weeks during the growth period.
- Harvest: pick when the fruits show a uniform lemon-yellow color and a pleasant crispness. Frequent harvesting encourages continuous production.
Harvest, preservation and use in cooking
Lemon fruits get their bright color and sweet flavor at maturity. After harvesting, store them in the refrigerator in a perforated bag to preserve their crispness. They are particularly well suited for fresh salads, cold dishes and quick preparations where a lemony touch brings freshness without heaviness.
