It's easy to grow a little woodland inside, all you need is some citrus fruit seeds, a small pot, soil, and a clear plastic bag. " To grow a miniature forest: 1. Let the seeds of grapefruit, lemons, or oranges dry overnight. 2. Rinse and then dry the seeds. 3. Put some soil in a container — a cottage cheese container works well. 4 Plant the seeds about 1/2 an inch down. 5. Water the forest. 6. Put the container in �a plirstic bag — tie a knot in the end of the bag. 7. Place in a light spot — but not direct sunlight until the seeds sprout. This may take 3 weeks!! 8. Take off the bag acid put the container on a windowsill 9. The leaves will grew and to dah, a forest! O.
