If you’ve never had the pleasure of tasting a fresh Meyer Lemon, you are really missing out! You won’t find them in grocery stores, but who needs grocery stores when you can grow your own Meyer Lemons at home no matter how much space you have! All organic, non-GMO, all nasty commercial stuff FREE!

I’ve grown these before a long time ago, and unfortunately, I had no clue what I was doing and in the third year I killed my budding Lemon tree by over fertilizing it. So this time I’m doing it right! In this video I’ll show you how to plant your new Meyer Lemon in a pot so you can grow it in your house, on a balcony or patio, or just about anywhere! I’ll also show you what I’ve learned about the soil you need to plant it in, how to fertilize it, prune it, and even protect it from the weather!
