Is there meant to be a photo attached? If so it looks like it didn't work unfortunately, could you try again?

You can repot at this time but you do not need to. A lemon of this size has a small root system and you are taking a chance of damaging the roots if you transplant it. I would wait another year. Being a little root bound will not hurt it. Why are those leaves still not attached to the plant? How often and how much are you watering?

Only water when necessary and DO NOT spray the leaves. By spraying the leaves you are inviting fungus especially on an indoor plant

Transpiration is the movement of water from the roots of a plant up to and through the leaves. Wetting the leaves has nothing to do with either. Foliar spraying is used for different things. From insecticide application to adding supplements such as compost tea or liquid seaweed but not for watering.

I do not know what the white stuff is. I have never seen it before

Try to see if that white stuff will rub off. It might be scale insects
