Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Many of the reviews for this product said this was a scam and that it doesn't grow. I would like to change that narrative for this seller. These seeds are difficult to grow but not impossible. At first I planted 6 or so seeds and nothing happened. Later I discovered that you need to remove the shell from the seed as you would a sunflower or pumpkin seed. I did that, but forgot to rinse them off first, so they became moldy. My third attempt I had more success, because I removed the shells, and rinsed off any dried residual lemon. As you cans see from the photos, one is growing REALLY well in my hydroponics AeroGarden and I have another one in the hydroponics that just sprouted. I also used the old fashion "seeds in a wet paper towel, inside a ziplock bag" trick and as you can see in my second photo when I hold it up to the light, one of the seeds has sprouted. So of the 20 or so seeds I received, I've managed to sprout 3 or 4. Possibly more, but I am not ready to open the paper towel yet. I still have a few unplanted seeds that I'll try to plant after this second round of hydroponic growing. So to summarize, I'd recommend removing the outer shell of the seeds, RINSE THEM OFF IN WATER to prevent mold growth and then set them in a wet folded paper towel inside a ziplock bag. Then leave that bag somewhere where it will receive lots of sunlight. It may take a few weeks, so be patient. God Bless!
