Hi,

I've never tried planting lemon seeds until now....so....

I planted a few lemon seeds I had saved up. About most of the seeds have sprouted. Of those sprouted, half are "normal" looking seedlings with a single stalk and set of leaves. The other half are double seedlings with two sets of stalks and leaves coming out of the same seed pod. Should I be removing one of the halves or stalks? Or should I let it grow this way?

Steve, you don't have to remove the entire half. Just pinch one of the tips out. Then, the other tip will grow into a normal tree.
