Container: For a plant that is 3-5 years old, a five-gallon container should be enough.
Soil: Sandy loam soil is generally favorable for citrus plants. An ideal pH range for a Meyer Lemon tree is 5.5–6.5.
Watering: Typisch, this needs to be done every 7n to 14 dagen. In het algemeen, deep but infrequent watering is the most efficient method for citrus plants. To determine when to water, use a measuring gauge to check the soil two inches below the surface. If it’s dry there, it’s time to water.
Fertilizing: Using a citrus plant fertilizer, the optimal ratio is 6-6-6-2 with minor ingredients.
Pruning: When cutting toward the tree, keep the branch collar intact. Cells in the branch collar stimulate callous tissue, promoting the plant’s growth after pruning. Don’t prune more than 1/3 of the tree in a single year.
Licht: Meyer lemons require about eight hours of direct sunlight per day to thrive. The ideal approach to light indoor citrus trees is with full spectrum grow lights.
