Growing Citrus Trees From Seed (Lemon and Orange) - 5 Year Update

Growing Citrus Trees From Seed (Lemon and Orange) - 5 Year Update
My Citrus Trees grown from seed are now almost 59 months old (nearly 5 years old) and it's time to get you updated on the Lemon and Orange Trees! They were sown from seed on 6/11/17.
In this update, I will show you how the trees fared since last year's repotting and spending 6 months indoors, in my indoor grow room.

Some info for the care of container-grown citrus plants:
Be sure you plants get 8-12 hours of direct sunlight (not blistering sun, but good sun)
Make sure the pot/container is well draining
Be sure to not let the soil dry out. Moist soil is better than not moist.
Supplement 2X per year with a slow release fertilizer (citrus is a heavy feeder)
You can use Neem Oil to treat pests like spider mites, or rubbing alcohol on mealy bugs/worms.
Citrus grown from seed takes 3-5 years minimum to flower, and sometimes it never does.

I hope you'll enjoy both of my Citrus series'. Here's the Orange and Lemon series links:

Some Citrus Seedling Care Info:
Citrus Trees like slightly acidic soil (5.5-6.5 PH) and it needs to be well draining soil full of sand, moss and perlite. They should be kept in warmer conditions while they are seedlings (75-85 degrees) and water them infrequently, but heavily - allowing all the water to drain from the pot, keeping it moist only.
