Soak in Water: Place the prepared cuttings in a glass jar or vase filled with clean, room-temperature water. Make sure the nodes where you made the cuts are submerged in the water.
Change the Water: Every few days, replace the water in the jar to prevent stagnation and keep it fresh.
Monitor Growth: Over the next few weeks, monitor the cuttings for signs of root growth. You should start to see white roots emerging from the nodes within a few weeks.
Planting: Once the roots are approximately 1 to 2 inches long, your cuttings are ready to be planted in soil. Choose a well-draining potting mix and transplant the rooted cuttings carefully.

Tips for Success:

Choose a sunny spot for your cuttings to encourage healthy growth.
Be patient and consistent with changing the water to maintain a clean environment for root development.
Avoid overwatering or allowing the cuttings to sit in waterlogged soil once they are transplanted.

With a little patience and care, you can easily propagate lemon tree cuttings using this simple water soaking method. Before you know it, you’ll be enjoying the fruits of your labor—literally!
