Get your secateurs out this August! Your citrus trees will be in need of a good prune! If you’re in a frost-free zone start your pruning late winter to early spring, and if not hold off until mid to late spring, it’s generally recommended immediately after harvest.

Don’t forget to remove 20% of the tree canopy each year and make sure you apply our NEW N-Phoska Citrus & Fruit Fertilizer Pellets as well as a good helping of our Katek poultry manure enhanced Not Just Mulch around the base of your trees.

For a healthy boost continue to feed your citrus trees our fertilizer every 6 weeks and keep up a regular watering routine!
