I don’t often get to see my citrus trees without a screen over them (to protect from HLB) but last night I repotted a Ponkan and a Sugar Belle and was so happy to see how healthy the trees and root system look that I wanted to take a picture to share and give a big thank you again to this forum, especially Millet, for making this possible. I don’t want to count my chickens before they hatch, as I haven’t gotten any fruit yet, but it seems at least that you can successfully grow citrus in Florida with protection.

Sounds as hard to grow citrus in florida as it is to grow here in Cincinnasti, Ohio

Very impressive! I would say that’s much more work than I have to do.

Yup  It sure is.  My advantage is I can go inside with total safety because temperature are predictable.  Every time you go inside there is a risk that the invisibly small ACP will get in with you.
