4. Compost the Seeds & Leftovers
Yes — lemon seeds, pulp, and peels can go in the compost!
✅ Adds nitrogen and acidity
Helps break down other materials
✅ Biodegradable
Unlike plastic, it enriches soil over time
⚠️ Just avoid adding too much at once — high acidity can slow decomposition.
5. Grow a Lemon Tree (From Seed) – For Fun, Not Fruit
While it takes years (and ideal conditions) to bear fruit, growing a lemon tree from seed makes a fun indoor project.
How To:
Rinse a seed well
Soak in water for 24 hours
Plant in moist potting soil (½ inch deep)
Cover with plastic wrap to retain humidity
Place in warm, sunny spot
🌱 Expect a lush houseplant — not a backyard orchard.
6. Infuse Water or Herbal Teas
Toss leftover lemon bits (rind + pulp) into a pitcher of water or herbal tea for extra flavor — just strain before drinking.
