Citrus General Discussion / forced air heating and citrus trees
« on: December 17, 2022, 12:20:31 PM »
Hot air vents cause problems with blowing air on citrus tree leaves resulting in leaf drop. . The pictures show my solution to this kind of problem. this makes good use of an otherwise bad situation. This placement of my tree forces the warm air across the floor at living level instead of above Our heads, while warming the roots in a 60F house.
