indoor lemon plant

Good morning. 

I grew some lemon plants from seeds last summer and I am facing some problems with these. Fresh new leaves and sometimes new buds are drying up. Can you please advise what problems might there be?

I regularly water (once a week during winter), the plants are in a plastic pot on the windowsill so they receive sufficient light, direct sunlight in the afternoon. The pot was filled with a mixture of compost and topsoil and water drains well.

I looked online and there are no bugs on the leaf or stem. I could post some photos but I can't see an option here. Please let me know if you could advise. Thank you.

    Hi @shankhachur and welcome to the forum  :)

    To post photos just click on the 'landscape' icon on the toolbar above the text box and follow the instructions.  If your photos don't appear reducing the size usually works.

    At this time of year they do loose leaves, but as its on a window it could be suffering from the cold through the glass. It's surprising how much comes through especially at night. So maybe move it away from the glass overnight.🙂
