How to grow a lime tree in a pot?
Lime (nimbu) is well-suited to container growing. Use a 15-litre pot with a citrus mix — cocopeat, garden soil, and sand in equal parts. Full sun, 6–8 hours daily. Water deeply but infrequently. Feed with NPK 13:0:45 during fruiting. Kaffir lime (used for leaves in cooking) and sweet lime (mosambi) both do well in pots. Grafted plants from a nursery fruit faster than seed-grown (2 vs 5+ years).
