Best care & feeding of new 18 high Myer Lemon tree,


Question
I have it in a semi-large clay pot (about 18 inches high with drainage) with miracle-gro potting soil. How often should I water it and what should I feed it and how often. And should I transplant it to a bigger pot? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Carlos

Answer
Carlos,

As far as watering goes you want to give the pot the finger.  Not that finger but your index finger.  Push into the soil to the first knuckle and if it feels dry water.

Use Miracle gro at each watering following the directions on the container.

Transplant when the roots start circling around the outside of the pot.

Good gardening
