Where did you find such a large container to plant that in your second question can you continue and leave it in and let it grow in that pot be the station near home for the lemon tree
What type of woodchips/bark are you using on top of the soil? I have a Meyer Lemon tree coming in next month and I am gathering supplies in anticipation of its arrival. Are you using any more inside of the soil as well? If so what is it?
Very informational. I love your garden, looks like a great place to meditate. Are your containers made from regular 2×6 lumber or is it pressure treated? Great job!
Beautiful garden! Thank you for your advice! Hello from Canada! I have couple of citrus trees and my baby is a panderossa lemon and the tree is 19 years old beautiful tree and delicious lemons, I get 40 to 50 lemons a year.
SHALOM!! HELLO MY BROTHA, I TRULY ENJOYED WATCHING THIS VIDEO. I HAVE A LEMON TREE AND A LIME TREE FROM HOME DEPOT LAST YEAR AND I AM TRYING TO LEARN WHAT TO DO TO GET THEM FRUITING AND STAYING HEALTHY. ONCE THE SPRING CAME IN, I ADDED A CITRUS TONE TO THEM AND WATERED THEM IN REALLY WELL….I MAY NEED TO REPOT THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE IN 5 GALLON BUCKETS STILL. I ORDERED 18 GALLON BLACK BUCKETS SO I MAY NEED TO ORDER LARGER BUCKETS. QUESTION: DO YOU ADD LEAVES AND THINGS TO YOUR LARGE BUCKETS TO TAKE UP SPACE AT THE BOTTOM OF YOUR CONTAINERS?
I really like how you take your time to explain everything and to do the job right. I usually just kinda push all the chips to one side & add fertilizer & do the same for the other side, but I do still find I miss spots like this or find some fertilizer on top of the mulch. Its best to take your time & do the job right like you did. Thanks for a great video!
Hello, New Subscriber here. I like how well you explained your process straight to the point, wish I saw this video before, at present I have a very young grafted mango tree in a 5 gal pot, I wanted to put it straight into the 30 gal but I herd on another channel NOT to be tempted to do that as it could damage the root of the tree (or something like that) so I went with the 5 gal. Thanks to your video I now know how often to fertilize the tree as well as how to ascertain the amount of fertilizer to use. Thank you Mr. Urban Gardner. 👍😄 as I said before New Subscriber so I will search to see if you talk about pruning plants, that is an area I struggle with.
Thanks for the information. When i got my citrus it had bark in the soil. When i transplanted them i used straight out of the bag cactus mix with lots of sand, but they all started to die. I think the basic city water caused some problems and i think the cactus soil was lacking. So i added vinegar or lemon juice to the water and started to see green buds forming. And i put them outside. I just this evening transplanted from plastic to terra cotta. The roots are not full, but there was no rot. The new soil is a mix of sandy cactus soil, loamy cactus soil, and a coarse orchid mix. I added slow release 5:3:8, blood meal, worm castings and a little more pearlite. The orchid mix is fir bark, perlite, and charcoal. I watered them in with 2 different liquid fertilizers. A standard liquid fertilizer and a marine base liquid fertilizer. Tomorrow i will find some worms! They are small so i used two one gallon pots and a half gallon. Anything else i can do? Two, Mayer lemon and a naval orange have no leaves, just tiny buds forming. The pondarosa lemon has a couple of leaves and the stems have been dying back. The trunk looks ok. Help if you can! Please and thank you. All the best! I like what you do!
I re-found you! Discovered you in 2018 with your strawberry vids now Private. Loved them though no success, my fault. Moved very recently from NY 6B to Johns, FL 9A. Lost interest during Covid, took up bread making. I got rewlly good, too good, 20 lbs woth of mistake but they all tasted so good! Bought my first lemon tree here in FL just this week, a Meyer Improved and needed tips for success. Searching I found that voice! I knew it was you. Voila, there you were! Retired now so I have more time to do what should be done. Subscribed to your new channel and will be a regular though I have to take the veggie growing slowly until I adjust to this terrible soil and hot weather, oy, it gets hot here. Glad I found you. I'm sure I'll have questions along the way but will view your vids first. So happy you are still out there. Stay well. Keep on posting!
Learning so much from you man, thanks alot, quick question i recently bought a 9 month old lemon that i repotted under a 150w Led dimmed @ 60% humidity 58%, 74°f, good drainage soil ph 6.8 watering @ 6.2 to bring down ph slowly. i repotted recently and its showing a little iron/zinc/calcium defficiency leaves are turning light green from the outer edge towards the center, but its a throwing off a bunch of fresh leaves, im trying to get a nice dark foliage going on. can i feed with biobizz full nutrient line or should i stick to a regular citrus feed?

Greetings
Hell of a nice garden you got there sir! Love the voice as well,are you just adding regular earth worms?
Thanks for your information! Do you feed monthly throughout the year, or give the last feeding in the Fall and resume in the Spring?

Can you expand on the importance of adding worms to your containers? I’ve never thought about doing that.
Oh man! I love your garden! Subscribed!
Hi. Can you please tell me where I can buy those big black planting containers like that? Thanks!!
What does the worms job for the soil and plant

Now have some grafted lime lemon an portugal sunny area
Where do you buy your containers? Thanks
Beautiful garden. I now the trees that will be left behind will cry. Hopefully the next person will take care of them.
What is the wooden structure behind you in the video? It looks like it could be some type of bird perch.
Learnt a lot from this. Didn't realise it was important to pre-wet the soil. Well explained!
Your garden is beautiful like your way of talk. Thanks I learned a lot
Learning so much from you man, thanks alot,
quick question i recently bought a 9 month old lemon that i repotted under a 150w Led dimmed @ 60%
humidity 58%, 74°f, good drainage soil ph 6.8 watering @ 6.2 to bring down ph slowly.
i repotted recently and its showing a little iron/zinc/calcium defficiency leaves are turning light green from the outer edge towards the center, but its a throwing off a bunch of fresh leaves, im trying to get a nice dark foliage going on.
can i feed with biobizz full nutrient line or should i stick to a regular citrus feed?
