| I live in deep South Texas and have many different types of citrus trees in pots. They bloom profusely and set fruit, then drop all when a little larger than pea-size. Any ideas what it could be? |
| Fruit drop is common, as the trees set far more fruit than they can bare to maturity. They drop pea-size to golf-ball-size fruit in May and June. Fruit drop can be worsed by hot weather and high winds. Citrus trees usually take several years or more to develop a consistent fruit crop. Grown in pots, your trees will require regular watering and fertilizing. Try to find a fertilizer formulated especially for citrus and follow package instructions. |
