When to move a lemon tree outdoors

Hello, I’m a little new here but I must know: when do you think is the perfect time to put my lemon tree outside? I’ve been looking all over for lemon tree instructions but no luck. Also, what is the right temperature to put the lemon tree outside after it’s been indoors for quite some time now?

Lemon trees do not like frosty weather so you need to wait until there is no danger of the night temps falling to 32 degrees. That is usually May in Western Washington. Make sure it gets a sunny window while it waits for summer. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
