So happy to see lemons thriving

in r2cornell •  2 years ago 

I will tell you a little about the small garden behind my house. In this vacant land I planted some useful plants for kitchen needs, one of which is lemon. It's very nice to see all the lemon trees behind my house thriving, the first time I only had one lemon seed that my friend gave me, now I have 3 stems with fairly fast growth, I feel very happy to have been able to harvest 1 until he lemon fruit every day for my hot tea mix.

This morning I saw my three lemon stalks blooming again, that's a sign that my lemon is growing fast, the lemon flower looks very beautiful with a beetle decoration that wants to eat the spores of my lemon flower.

Right under the newly sprouted flower I saw a very young lemon, this kind of fruit cannot be consumed because it has very little water and tastes very bitter. Young fruit like this is very susceptible to falling due to dead fruit stalks.

On the same tree I also found one fruit that was ready to harvest, because from the characteristics I saw this fruit had started to turn yellow, I did not harvest this fruit because I had harvested fruit from another stem that was more mature than this.

This is a photo of the rest of the lemons I harvested this morning as an addition to my hot tea, because I only harvest one fruit every morning. I don't know why, the fruit I harvested only had a little water unlike usual, even though the weather in this area is still in season. rain, maybe because there are too many fruits on the same stem.

Unfortunately the lemon tree in this photo doesn't do anything and doesn't know why, even though yesterday this tree was the only tree that bore the most fruit than the other trees, from the characteristics of the trunk and leaves of this tree, there were no signs of fertile women. a sign of complete lack of all the lemon trees in my yard I have never sprinkled the fertilizer that is sold at the farm shop, I just added a little manure.
