    Some good advice in this video but I would never transfer water that has gone through one pot to another - any soil born issues would be spread from one plant to another

    Great video and great little system you got going. 👍🏼

    Thank you for the great video. I’ve had my citrus trees for 3 years and have struggled to keep them alive in the winter. And they keep getting root rot. I will be changing the soil mixture. Can’t wait to try your tips.

    I just started my garden this year-never even picked up a shovel before April 2024, lol. Right now, I'm keeping it simple with peppers, tomatoes, and eggplants, but I've quickly fallen in love with gardening and I'm already planning for the future. I've decided to purchase a Meyer lemon tree and a red finger lime tree. Thank you so much for these videos! They're incredibly helpful for a beginner like me. I live in zone 7 and plan to grow them indoors. Do you have any other tips or advice?

    neem seed meal effectively eliminated my fungus gnat problems. Neem seed oil didn't seem to have a very big effect, but the seed meal had dramatic results within 3 days of application.

    Great Video. It's nice seeing other Indoor growers. Wish I found this sooner

    Gonna have to try to grow some citrus. Your video is super informative. Tried the mosquito bits with no luck though. Been using a 4 parts water to 1 part hydrogen peroxide on all our houseplants. Works wonders on getting rid of the fungus nats.

    Thank you for such great information! I have a lemon tree that I started two years ago from a supermarket seed. Outside it was ravaged by Chipmunks several times, but has survived Nature's pruning!😅 I read that you should prune the interior of the plant to keep it an open habit, but didn't hear you mention this. So I would be interested on how you feel about that! What prompted me to do more research this morning was that my lemon tree needs to be reported and all I have is Orchid mix. And it seems from listening to your information, that I can indeed use this since it is a free draining mix? I have written down the fertilizers you use. And can't wait to start feeding mine properly! Love you using liquid seaweed outside, and have hesitated using it inside! But will incorporate little bits of that into the mix.

    Thank you for your very informative video. We just bought our first mercott honey tangerine tree, and we will keep it on our patio during the end of the summer and then bring it in for the winter and then put it back out for spring. We learned a lot just from your video on how to properly care for her. 🍊☀️ thanks so much.

    I have mine in 15 gallon pots and I have 4 on a plastic pallet on wheels and roll it in the garage here in Washington year 5 the smaller ones just go around and in a grow tent

  • @aureliana3988

    I use clay pots for better rots and i don't have a schedule for wateting...just let them drink when they get thirsty. The pine bark it an excellent solution for soil mix and mulching. I wish you all the best for you and your citrus ! 🥰

    Good stuff here. For your 511, did you use regular perlite or #3 perlite? Coarser one is preferred and did you add 1 tablespoon of dolomite lime per gallon of mix. It helps with the ph of the bark and adds some nutes!

    It's very helpful to know something about the height of the citrus indoors, thank you very much! I'm growing my kumquat seedlings in door for over a year, and it comes to a point that they are growing higher and higher but no branches at all, even I took off the top shot, they wouldn't grow branches just keep growing higher(just learned yesterday that I have to keep taking off newshots at the top until it decide to branch, or is there any better suggestions? I'm eager to learn and try. I'm not looking for fruiting, just want to have these trees indoor). I have an east facing indoor balcony which is summer like in winter and burning hot in summer in Beijing, almost get sunlight smash in my living room everyday until 11 am. They are growing OK but there are so little infomation I can find about grow citrus, kumquats from seeds, especially the basic knowlage about them, with your video I can figure out how high I want them to grow and the future knowlage of pruning them. Thank you!

    So helpful, thank you! Question, when you winterize potted citrus, should they be in a slightly cooler area? I seem to remember reading that they need a cool period to flower--like in the 60's.
