Ripee Live Hybrid Lemon Plant Nimbu for Garden with Black Pot

Features

• Lemon trees thrive in full sun, which in this case is between six to eight hours of daily sun.
• All citrus trees thrive in soil of medium texture and moderate depth with a slight acidity. Soil that is well-drained is an absolute must as root rot is a problem in soggy conditions. Mulching should be avoided to prevent pooling water.
• The trees prefer low to moderate rainfall. During the period of establishment, more frequent watering will be requiredeven as much as once or twice a week. Once mature, lemon trees develop more drought tolerance. During the summer months, the soil should be kept moist, especially for young trees. Be careful not to cause waterlogging as boggy conditions are problematic. Overwatering results in yellowing leaves, which then drop, along with fruit drop and root rot
• Use a complete NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) fertilizer to encourage healthy growth and fruit production. A deficiency in nitrogen, magnesium, zinc, iron, or potassium also causes varying degrees of yellowing leaves
