IF the seed is viable (all are not), place in shallow dirt, barely covered and keep just damp...if it doesn't sprout withint 2-3 weeks, toss and use new seed. The problem is that you never know what you are going to get...a hybrid that is good, or a hybrid that is not so good. Purchase the seeds if you want to spend this much time...needs loose soil, good food. Emperor lemons are particularly easy to grow. Tangerines are easy. Limes are not so easy. Good luck...PS..these are slow growing at first, then need very big space!
