This is my mandarin tree outside, planted 1 year ago. Watering heavily every other day, currently 100 degree's outside. Gave zinc/mag a month ago with minimal improvement. Still looks like leaves are fading anf curling. Dont see any bugs or anything. What am i doing wrong??

Are you fertilizing? You should be using an 'especially formulated for citrus' type fertilizer about once a month during the spring and summer.

No, use the fertilizer according to the label instructions.
You are overwatering and in danger of causing root rot. Stop watering so often. Water when the top 6 inches of soil is dry and then slow drip until the water stops soaking in.
