I recently pruned the lower branches off many of my citrus trees, and now I'm plagued with shoots coming out of the rootstocks. Is there a good way to reduce the number of rootstock suckers that a plant generates? How long with this plague last?I only cut off the braches low to the ground to keep fruit off the ground, facilitate cutting grass and reducing mosquito habitat.
