Potted Meyer Lemon, Zone 7, Advice Please

8 years ago

Following the advice of johnmerr, I have augmented watering with Foliage Pro and vinegar. I have seen overall health improvement, some flowering but no lemons. Recently had a nice flush of leaves followed with some yellowing of leaves. I take that as fairly normal this time of year.
My question is should I continue to water with FP throughout the year? I will bring my tree in when it gets to be 40 at nite. Thanks for any assistance.

I think most here who bring in their plants for the Winter reduce the FP to half during that time.

Whether you feed or not, and how much you feed during the winter for indoor plants all depends on how warm you will keep your tree, and how much sunlight the tree gets every day. In a greenhouse with plenty heat and light trees are feed year around. Normally trees that spend the winter in a personal residence do as John wrote in his above post.
