Good,solid advice and helpful close ups.Citrus fr om seeds can yield trees with good quality fruit.I had several volunteer citrus trees growing in central Florida with two of those with high quality fruit but with some good sized thorns on the branches. AFAIK they didnt suffer from greening disease for at least 10 years possibly because they were growing in an oak and pine forest.Thanks for this video.Ive got a meyer lemon,10 degree tangerine,and a Brown Select Satsuma to pot up next week here in eastern Tennessee. This help me avoid any potting mistakes.

My orange tree didn’t make it from last winter frost but it did give a 4’ shoot with thorns. I sniped the top hoping it will branch & give oranges. I am not a gardener but learning. Do I keep it or toss it. The bottom growth is right above the graft next to the original orange tree cutting. Thank you so much 🥰
@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 3 жыл бұрын
Hello! I'm sorry to hear that. It is hard to say, but if the shoot is that close to the graft point, and the foliage looks different than the original orange tree then it may be a shoot from the root stock. If that is the case then it won't produce the original orange. I am working on a video that addresses this question, and hope to make it available in the next few weeks. Best wishes.

Hi, outside of assuring all of the conditions are met for optimal growth ( 6-8 hours of sun, regular fertilization higher in nitrogen, and allowing the top two inches of soil to dry between waterings) it may just be a matter of patience. This is just the beginning, so I would give them some time to mature. Two years is the general rule for establishment, but each circumstance can be unique. If they look good otherwise I would keep doing what you're doing and give them a chance. I hope that helps!

What’s your opinion on Catus mix for citrus plants? I keep reading regular soil mix holds to much water and will cause root rot. I also know people diy there own mix 2 parts sand 1 part potting soil. Idk what to do. Going to container a meyer lemon, live in Louisiana
@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 2 жыл бұрын
It will vary depending on the potting soil you’re using, and cactus mix can help if what you have seems heavy. I might consider 3 parts potting soil and 1 part cactus mix or something like sand, decomposed granite, or expanded shale. When we want to increase drainage a mix of different sized aggregates is beneficial, so you could mix a few things together depending on what you have on hand.

You like terra cotta for its porosity, if plastic is all we have (or can get) should we just drill a lot of drainage holes? And what would be an optimal size pot for full maturity for dwarf citrus? Thanks. Love your videos.

Thank you! As long as the plastic pot already has drainage holes, it should be ok to use. I have a 13-year-old dwarf Meyer Lemon that has been in a 16" clay pot the entire time and it produced well this winter. You have to monitor their root growth and you can root prune to keep them in the same size container long term if necessary. I hope that helps

Hey!! Im in the PNW near Seattle...My damn roommate brought home a lemon tree she said was "bred for this area it will be fine" she said. RIGHT. I spent all last winter out in the rain every single night wrapping this tree in everything imaginable to keep it from freezing. It barely survived. It grew lots of green leaves this year, but no lemons. So what does she do?? SHE BRINGS HOME ANOTHER ONE. OH YES. so...I am bashing my head in the wall bcz I am the one who has to care for them. I bought an Amazon greenhouse as we live in a bougie neighborhood where we cant have anything to crazy. We do NOT have a south facing wall, and it is not possible to bring them in the house. So they will be back on the porch in this damn thing and not getting nearly enough light because it is a Rainmageddon here for 7 to 8 months out of our miserable year.

@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad Жыл бұрын
It's possible. Citrus often set more fruit than they can support, and as they balance resources they will drop some fruit. In the case of two trees in one pot, the resources available have to be shared, and that is likely to be tricky long term. Best to have one tree per pot unless it's a large, wide planter.

@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad 11 ай бұрын
I recommend checking the soil with your finger by a depth of 1 inch, and if it’s dry at that point it needs water. Also check that water is draining freely out the bottom of the pot. I’ve had some drainage holes get clogged when sitting directly on the ground and water couldn’t drain properly. In my central Texas garden we’ve had very hot temperatures and I’ve been watering every morning, but I do check them regularly to make sure they’re not staying soggy. Moisture meters are helpful, but I recommend getting a feel for this as well.

@newgardenroad
@newgardenroad Жыл бұрын
Hello! You need a pot with a drainage hole for excess water, otherwise root rot is likely to occur. Terracotta is a good choice, but you something ceramic, or even a whiskey barrel. Waiting to plant depends on the root development of the tree that you purchase. You may be able to tell by inspecting the drainage holes of the pot the tree comes in. It may also be possible to carefully remove the tree from the pot for a brief inspection of the roots. If it hasn't established it's roots already, then it may be best to wait one growing season before repotting. I hope that helps!

I would be surprised if you can't find a grafted tree as that's how most commercially produced citrus are propagated. For grafting your own (which I have not done) you would need a suitable root stock such as a trifoliate orange, a cutting from a disease free citrus tree, and from there you would perform a bud graft. Again, not something I've done, just my general understanding of the process.

How do your citrus do long term in terracotta and over the winter. Ppl on citrus pages don't recommend terracotta but i feel like the benefits of the porosity is a big plus. I just switched mine into terracotta i had them in small plastic pots in 511 and they were still staying to wet and getting rot so hopefully terracotta helps with that.

fox farms have great products but they are expensive and made of predominantly peat moss. peat moss breaks down too quickly and has hydration problems.

Can you please explain why you shouldn’t plant a citrus tree from seed.

Because it would take decades to grow a tree from seed to harvest. We're talking 20 years on average. And that's assuming its a determinate type that actually produces fruit.

There are a few things to consider. Younger trees may not produce for the first two years, and if they're grown from seed it can take much longer. Assure they are getting full sun and regular fertilization. Have they been exposed to freezing temperatures? If so, the root stock may have survived and the fruiting part of the tree is gone. I hope that helps! Here's more tips kzfaq.info/get/bejne/irGopLySy73Pdo0.html

My orange tree was doing well in a pot then it seemed to stop flowing and didn't produce anything. Was told to put it in the ground which is what I did yesterday. I really want to keep my lemon tree in a pot. I'm going to transplant it out of its original container into a larger one. It's starting to flower. I've had it for 3 years
