Lemon tree now with pictures.

[Azarashi]

Hi!

So this is my third post concerning Lemon tree, it is still trying to grow as you can see in pictures, but it seems that same thing is going to happen to new leaves since tips of leaves are already turning grayish green although you can't really see that in pictures. I don't have a picture of amber ball thing that I found last time because i crushed it and i haven't found another. Also my grandmother said that it's possible that flies are causing it.
Hopefully pictures are going to shed a light on what excatly is wrong.

If that room is where the tree lives it is not getting near enough sunlight. Citrus needs a minimum of 8 hours of direct sunlight just to stay viable and where it is now I would guess it gets less than 3.

I don't think there would be 8 hours of sunlight if my room was all glass.
And about grow lights can I just replace my regular light bulb with this http://www.hydroponics.eu/cfl-grow-light-s-297.html?gclid=CKGG3u2SydECFVaJsgodEJwLCg?

You are in the wrong climate to grow citrus. If by some chance you did manage to keep the tree alive with grow lights a lemon tree/bush will grow into a size where it would take many grow lights to maintain its health and become very expensive to do so.

And all I wanted was lemons that hadn't traveled around half the world. ^^
Well thanks anyway, I will see if it manages till summer and what happens if it does, if nothing, well I will have allot of spring onions or if me luky me haz potato.

Do you put the tree outside in the summer? I wonder if a greenhouse (just a small one) would be the answer for you in the winter?

It definitely looks like the tree is hungry, i.e. needs much more sunlight.

I don't think small greenhouse is going to withhold -20c weather even if I put heather in there.
Also Latvian winters aren't exactly very sunny.

I know what you mean. I live in South Texas and it is the wrong climate too. A hundred miles south of here they grow all kinds of citrus. I have grown a lot of citrus and you must live in the right place. I had hoped Global Warming would have helped but so far it isn't getting any warmer in the fall and winter.

Well then, I guess Chuck is right, you're only hope is Global Warming...good luck with that...
