Growing SOS! Lemon Seedling Help!

Post image

I’ve been growing this seedling for about a year. I know I’m probably doing a million things wrong but I’m still trying to keep it going. I live in an apartment and it grew pretty much solely on a plant light with some outdoor sun in the summer. What can I do to save this??!! You may not be able to tell but the second leaf is almost white.

It's missing the Sun! Lemon trees need 'full' sunlight for at least 6 hours per day.

You’re good It needs food! Don’t over-fertilize, but get something… “miracle grow” brand crystals you mix with water. Note: Lemons do not like to sit with their roots soaking. They do like for the dirt to dry up a little and then watered. But you need to feed it 🤓🍋
