What kind of soil do lemons need?

1. What kind of soil is needed

When planting lemons, you need to prepare acidic soil first. In addition, the cultivation soil used must also have good air permeability. You should choose a relatively loose soil. It is best to mix leaf mold, volcanic rock, and garden soil. This soil mixing method has good air permeability and is also very helpful for the growth of lemons.

In addition, lemon is also afraid of waterlogging, and the soil used for planting should not be too sticky. Sticky soil is not only not conducive to its root growth, but also has a certain hindering effect on its later growth.

2. Pay attention to soil use

1. Base fertilizer: In order to make the planted lemons grow better, add some base fertilizer to the prepared soil. Mix the fertilizer and planting soil thoroughly, which will be more conducive to the absorption of the lemon seedlings.

2. Disinfection: Don’t forget to disinfect before planting, because there is a high possibility of bacteria in the soil, which can easily damage its root system after planting, so it must be disinfected before use. However, if you are using newly purchased soil, you can use it directly.
