- Fill a pot or container with potting soil, leaving about an inch of space at the top.
- Plant the orange seeds about half an inch deep in the soil.
- Water the soil until it’s evenly moist but not soggy.
- Cover the pot with plastic wrap or a plastic bag to create a mini greenhouse effect, retaining moisture and warmth.
Step 4: Providing Optimal Conditions
- Place the pot in a sunny location where it can receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day.
- Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Ensure proper drainage in the pot to prevent root rot.
- Remove the plastic covering once the seedlings start to emerge (usually within a few weeks).
