Default Lemons hasten or slow fermentation ?

Making up a brew of five litres, would adding the called for juice from
three lemons, give an 'acidity' that would likely hasten or slow the
fermentation time? If it slows it, I thought we would try to add the lemon
juice towards the end of the process.

It would definitely slow the process. Add the lemon at the end of the fermentation
