We have been getting tiny lemons on our lemon tree that die and drop off before they mature. They only get about 1/2 " in diameter. What should we do? |
It is not unusual at all for citrus to drop fruit. This is usually due to a young plant that is just not ready to set and mature a full crop load, but can be aggravated by drought, soggy soil, poor pollination and other stresses. Keep the soil moist and fertilize with a light application of a balanced fertilizer (especially for citrus) every month or two during the growing season. |
