What's included

  • Premium non-GMO Citrus reticulata (tangerine tree) seeds, real loose nutrient-rich potting soil (not compressed discs), recyclable planter with clear lid for humidity control, and detailed step-by-step growing instructions. Everything needed to start growing - no extra supplies required.

How to grow it

PLANTING: Open your Seeds In A Cup kit. Fill the container with the provided growing medium. Plant tangerine seeds ½ inch deep. Water thoroughly. No stratification needed — citrus germinates readily in warmth. Place in the warmest, sunniest location available (75-85°F) or under a grow light for 14-16 hours/day. Cover with humidity dome.

GERMINATION CARE: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination occurs in 14-28 days. Once sprouts appear, remove the humidity dome. Ensure maximum light exposure — citrus seedlings stretch if light is insufficient.

SEEDLING CARE: Tangerine seedlings need full sun. When seedlings reach 4-6 inches, transplant to a larger pot with well-draining citrus soil mix. Water regularly and feed with citrus-specific fertilizer monthly during the growing season. In Zones 9-11, transplant outdoors. In all other zones, grow as a sunny-window houseplant or patio plant, bringing indoors when temps drop below 50°F.
