leave issue on meyer lemon
« on: July 22, 2024, 12:25:52 PM »
Hello,

i have some trouble with my meyer lemon

some leaves from my meyer lemon turning dark/green and yellow,
also she makes a lot of flowers
and doesn't make mutch new growth

it can be stress,
the weather in Belgium is swinging from hot to cold ...

as fertilizer i give it blood/bone meal with home made vermit compost

the meyer is grafted on a swingle rootstock.

my fingerlime on the other hand is doing great
same treatment

does anyone have an idea?

The symptoms of a nitrogen deficiency in citrus are yellow/orange veins with  some green out on the far sides of the leaf. Organic fertilizers do OK when used in the soil, but not so well in container culture.  This is because container soil does not have enough organisms to break down the organic fertilizer into a form for the tree to use.
