Orange Tree

Question

I planted orange seeds and now I have 3 plants about 13 to 18 inches tall and I keep them indoors. Now what should be my next step be? What should I do to get fruit?

Answer 1

Unless you want three separate trees, you might want to thin them down to the strongest one. Otherwise, you should pot each one of the seedlings in a containers of its own. I would keep them potted up this way for at least another season before planting outdoors, if this is what you plan on doing. Those grown indoors will benefit from spending spring and summer outside, bringing indoors during fall once cooler temps return to overwinter in the house.
