Is this citrus greening?

(1/3) > >>

Lory:
Among my citrus trees there is one that i love particularly.
It's a nearly 3 years old pomelo SEEDLING.
It's growing steadily with a graceful shape (uncommonly not straight upright) a strong thorny trunk and a dense, thornless canopee.



I've the feeling that it might start to flower in just a couple of years.
Unfortunately the last months I didn't notice any new growth, it's like the plant stopped despite watering and fertilizing.
This is how they look some of the leaves now.
Are these the early symptoms of citrus greening?

gozp:
For me, it looks nutrient deficient.

Lory:
How i wish you were right!  :)
what worried me is that the VEINS turned yellow first.
Veins are the source of life to the leaves so they should be the last ones turning yellow
I hope Millet will chime in and give his opinion.

Millet:
Not sure if your leaf symptoms are showing symptoms of greening.  Yellow veins is common in nitrogen deficiencies, but the balance of the leaves shown on your link are still very dark green, so at this point that rules out nitrogen deficiency.  Citrus greening symptoms normally show a more blotchy appearance.  Another greening symptom is what is normally called "corky veins".  I'm not sure what "corky veins" looks like, perhaps you can find that out on the Internet. 

Millet:
Lory, the  link below shows many good pictures of Citrus Greening symptoms.  There is even one picture of what  "corky veins" look like..
