I grow approximately 50 -100 Clementine seedling every year. Clementine seedlings will not produce true from seed, but rather a one of a kind never seen before variety. Almost every seedling tree will turn out to be of inferior quality. However, many of the now famous citrus varieties came about as a chance seedling. I grow them for the fun of finding the MIRACLE tree. They will take about 5 - 6 years before the tree begins to produce flowers, but when they are grown inside a warm greenhouse throughout the entire year, the fruiting time is cut in half. After the tree has produced it's first two true leaves, you can begin to fertilize at 1/3 to 1/2 strength. Good luck. - Millet
