I’m new to lemon trees and trying to grow one. So I was misting it and noticed the water sitting and realized it was cobwebs!!! Does anyone know what to do, and/or what spider or whatever it is did this?

If it’s really fine webs it’s likely Spider Mites, a plant pest. I’d clean the plant and you can spray with a mix of water and washing up liquid to kill them
