Lucuma yellowing leaves
gacevedobolton:
Hi Folks,
My lucuma has recently started showing some yellow leaves. This happened after moving it from the backyard to the front, where it gets more sun, and unfortunately wind. (I'm in Costa Mesa, Zone 10b) I'm moving it back, but wanted to see if there are other factors I should be considering or looking out for. Generic searches for "yellow leaves" bring results of chlorosis, overwatering, underwatering, etc.
The tree has been doing well, other than the yellow leaves and not producing any flowers this year.

Had a similar problem with a loquat seedling a bit back. I just gave it some seasol (liquid fertiliser) and it bounced back.
gacevedobolton:
Thanks for the suggestion. It's still hard to get Seasol in the states unfortunately, will look for something comparable.
