Hi Julia,The weather is Georgia is too cold for Key Lime which can only survive in the lower half of Florida. I would try potting the seedlings in soilless compost. Keep them in a south or west facing window so that they can get full sun. The potting material should be well drained. Water frequently and feed them every two weeks. Only when they are repotted should they be removed from a south facing window for a few days to allow the roots to recover.
Do not expose these trees to anything approaching freezing. Their geographical restriction implies a low frost tolerance! Good luck and have fun cultivating.
