Thanks Guys....I just found it strange the one variety was going yellow/red like that and the other wasnt ...I thought maybe they were iron deficient but the leaves were pure yellow with no green veins..........it will be spring soon and i am sure they will be ok then.......Thanks for the advise.

what about white oil? is that actually neem oil or something different?...........you can buy white oil in spray cans over here......i have tried several sprays for citrus leaf miner and they are still causing  trouble with the new growth......but then i caught 6 snails on lemonade the other night and shes only small........they were sent packing.

Two items of concern.........the first one is..
1...i repotted many citrus trees recently from a 300mm pot to a 400 mm pot......most of them are behaving normally but one seems to be drying out in the rootball but the area around the side of the pot is staying wet on my moisture meter........need i worry about this? I water evenly when i water ......is there anything i can do to keep the mix evenly moist ?
the second one is two types of leaf curl........the small leaves are off my lime and imperial manderin.......they are both curving down and around.........could this be potassium deficency?
the other bigger leaf is off my japanese seedless........this is cupping up and around......what could be causing that? or is that normal.............
I have been feeding with organics and water when the mix dries to moist....................any help appreciated........it has been very hot here and now its sitting around 25/26C......Thanks Jon

Sure this has been asked before but i am going to ask it......
what is the optimum Ph level for container citrus for advanced nutrient absorption ?       Thanks.

Cool.........the inclusion rate i find a bit confusing......would be good if they gave a per litre of mix rate........or per cm pot size...i am using a 40 cm pot at present.
Millet.............Do you think i am better off choosing the coarse zeolite 2-6mm in size over the fine.....0-2mm size ? i figured the fine stuff would be more likely to clog the potting mix up........your thoughts please?
I have some 2 to 4 mm come today= 400Gram........I will be adding that to some mixes this weekend.

Hope these links work as it will explain everything.

Anyone tried the above in their container mixes? .........worthwhile?

Great idea....but i hadnt thought of that.....why? because my family will eat them anytime and all the time..so i just have 5 different types....hahaha

I have potted up most of my citrus into bigger pots just before autumn ....here in perth western Australia........I do have two other dwarf citrus that have put out their autumn growth flush.....I am aware that citrus tend to go = root growth/top growth/root growth/top growth....................so would it be a bad idea to put these trees into bigger pots while they are doing top growth? ....or would i be better to wait until near the end of winter to pot up? .........thanks

i have been inspecting my trees daily for them now.......give them an ear clip to stun them and then squash them..........seems to be working........mostly green ones but we get those big pale brown ones at times........they are pretty tough...I buried one alive for 5 mins and then dug him up and he flew off quite happily........caterpillars have destroyed my cucumbers....shame that....

Similar to what you have now....only larger.......easy transition for the tree.

My 2 cents worth.........if you are happy with the size it is now........remove from pot.......take a bread knife and slice around the rootball in a box shape like a loaf of bread...in fact a bread knife is ideal.........say 2 inch all around......remove any rotting roots.......tease the outside roots out a bit........give the containor a good scrub and rince(new or old).......put in about 2 to 4 inches of fresh potting mix........rose mix is good or terracotta mix..........put back into pot at same height as before.......prune the top a bit as well.......cut back branches to outward facing bud....water with seaweed solution to get the roots active......keep in semi shade for 2 weeks .....Good time to repot now where you are as it will give the tree time to put out new roots over winter ...ready for spring flush........keep on the dry side of moist and after 2 weeks introduce to full sun........dont feed at all or add stuff to the mix at repot....wait until you see new top growth and then apply slow release fert to the top.........if you want it to grow bigger.....remove from pot........prune any cirling roots........tease roots a little .......pot up to a pot 2 to 4 inch bigger than existing pots......2 to 4 inch on bottom of pot......place rootball in.......backfill........water with seasol and follow above,..........no need to prune top........feed when sign of new top growth appears.......i put some mesh(onion sack) on the bottom of pot to stop mix leaching out..............I used to put gravel on bottom but i dont anymore....try to have 4 to 5 main branches on top.......prune to shape and prevent long leggy branches.......If possible put pot on pot feet and make sure there are loads of drainage holes ......this is what i do......I have 5 trees that i want to pot up but its been 42C here for the past three days and i will wait for it to become cooler before i do that........Hope this helps ....good luck.
