The best advice is to choose a root stock that is adapted to the soils and climate in which the tree is going to be planted;  As a general rule the faster a tree grows the poorer the fruit quality.

Thank you Dan for all the effort you are putting forth to inform the public to the dangers of HLB, and where the public can obtain the help of the experts.  Your to be applauded. 

Well if you think there is any  quality in either the Yuzu or the Ichang Papeda, then I guess it will not lower the quality of either fruit.

I got my seed from the CCPP during a visit to there facility.  Myself and a friend spent the day there, and was given a fruit.   You can wright the CCPP and ask if they will send you some seed.

For a mature tree (it is flowering & fruiting)  it sure sure has a lot of thorns.

Dlhvac, time will tell if your treatment actually works. A good nutrition program looks like it works, but actually only for a short period. 

Although your tree does not look fabulous, it also does not look all that bad either.  It is definitely showing a fertilizer deficiency, especially nitrogen.  When a tree it greatly deficient in nitrogen the leaves will be totally yellow with no variation of color, or yellow/orange veins with some green out on the far sides.  When the deficiency is less severe, as what your tree is showing,  Less severe shows up on older leaves with newer leaves still retaining some green. Your tree is currently showing a medium nitrogen severity.  At temperatures above 95-F growth stops in citrus trees. This is the time of year nearing the time to stop fertilizing.  I would suggest you first foliar spray the foliage with a nitrogen solution such as low biuret urea, or a fertilizer with a higher nitrogen content.  You might also apply a light fertilizer to the roots.  Do what you want, but for this tree I would not apply a organic fertilizer due to the trees immediate needs.

One last comment.  Chicken poop is extremely high in soluble salts, unless the poop has been composted. 

SoCal2warm,  you are certainly correct. However, the mistake stated in your post is not a mistake on the citrus's part, but rather is a mistake on the human beings part.

LBurford if your container plants are small, and if you don't mind taking the time, you could use your fingers to squash  the insects inside the leaves.  If the leaves have started to show the insects tunnels, simply squeeze the leaf at the very end of the tunnel to kill it.

SeaWalnut, the label is not referring to an insecticide, but the caution is because the fruit is washed in a fungicide bath.  Eating the fruit, or using its juice will not harm you in the least.  In my opinion you are being way over cautious. Actually just about all citrus varieties are washed in a fungicide bath, and have a wax coating applied to them, at least in the USA.  By simply washing the fruit in warm water should take care of the situation. However, do what you wish.

Macrophylla, should be OK in 9B.  Could have troubles with rare freak hard cold spells, but this could of course happen anywhere.
