Once I was eating a clementine, decided I wanted to grow some so I followed some steps online (didn’t actually think it would work but I gave it a try) and safe to say, they have sprouted overnight yesterday!Not sure if this is a good idea or if i’ll even be able to keep them alive but it’s worth a shot lol

I love trying to grow from fruit and veg bought from the supermarkets.  
Here’s my mandarin plants grown from seed and planted last spring 🌱

If you check my profile and look in Chester’s Room you can see their grow-up pictures.

Me too, a lot of my plants are store bought fruits, vegetables and herbs.

It might not fruit but citrus often grows just fine indoors!

#### Ari replied on 2024-10-28

Hope mine fruits! I’d feel so happy to harvest my own clementines

#### Ari replied on 2024-10-28

They’ve also just started popping up!
