I am not a scientist, but if it is a bacterial disease that begins in the roots, why don't they start treating the soil/roots with sprays designed to kill bacteria? What about a copper stay in the soil that is taken up by the roots into the tree. I would think it would be easier to kill bacteria in a tree than it would be in a human, but yet again, I am not a scientist.

Citrus General Discussion / Re: Issue with Cemtennial Kumquat
« on: September 29, 2015, 03:59:55 PM »
The salt buildup was a longshot and couldn't think of any other explanation if it wasn't overwatering. I had put the pot underneath the overhang to prevent it from receiving any additional water. I have let it dry out completely and removed all of the soil on top of the roots to aid in it drying out faster. Now that it is dried out I set it back outside to receive a little water since it is lightly raining today. Should this issue correct itself within the next few weeks or is there anything else I should do additionally other than let it completely dry out in between waterings? Thanks for the confirmation that the issue was overwatering.

Citrus General Discussion / Issue with Cemtennial Kumquat
« on: September 28, 2015, 07:53:37 PM »
I am having a lead curl issue with my centennial kumquat tree. It has been watered overhead everyday by sprinkler. I had put a decent amount of evergreen soil conditioner in too of the potting soil as a mulch/soil acidifir. My guess is that it was due to over watering or salt buildup from the soil conditioner. I didn't have this issue with the other cirus but this one has a lot bigger pot. Can anyone tell me what the issue is and what I need to do so the tree doesn't die?
