Thank you for this video as I need help with citrus trees. Yes thank u for that video I was able to setup my own irrigation system. Awesome thank again.
I fed my overly abundant and totally ignored lemon tree as my daughter convinced me it needed it even buying the fertilizer, I promptly had not a single lemon for the following 2 years, wasps are good for the garden
While makrut has been a mainstay of Thai cooking, attitudes towards the word have evolved. You've likely seen the fruit more typically referred to as 'kaffir lime',. What began as a reference to an ethnic group in Sri Lanka, who proudly identify themselves as Kaffirs, has gained ugly connotations in other parts of the world. In South Africa, kaffir is used as a racist slur against black Africans - comparable to using the 'n' word. It's also deployed as a Muslim insult, which is another reason why some people avoid it. American restaurant critic Soliel Ho famously placed the name on her list of "words you will never see me use in restaurant reviews" in February 2019, and while there's been American reporting about kaffir lime being an offensive word since 2014, this awareness has yet to occur in Australia. It's still relatively common to see 'kaffir lime' being listed on a menu. Anderson puts it down to ignorance rather than insensitivity. "I think a lot of people, if they knew [kaffir was insulting], they certainly would stop [using it]," she says. "Names change, borders change, ingredient labels change. This one's changed because of racial and political associations," she says. "I always wondered why the hell it was called kaffir lime anyway. The Thais call it makrut."

I bet your daughter has never lived that down 😅
I was trimming my very mature lemon tree this arvo. It has huge very sharp spikes. Hadn’t noticed that before😮?
No idea about spikes - I’ll have to ask Jamie! 😂
Some varieties are naturally spiky!
I use iron chelate snail pellets 2 birds 1 stone
That’s a great idea!
Will look for those as I uncovered thousands ( well maybe 20 ) on my lemon tree today😮
Hi newbie here, why have you got nets over the lemon trees?
The possums like eating the leaves of my lemon trees!
It’s a good question though - most people don’t need to net 🙂

I gave up growing lemons. Too many issues with growing them in pots.
Our lemons in pots have been tricky too. I think they always do better in the ground!
@@ChristieCooper unfortunately I don’t have the right spot to grow one in the ground. I just pinch them from friends lol.
My lemon tree don't have any lemons is there like a male tree
Is it young? It might just need to mature. Usually you don’t need a second tree to cross pollinate.

Thanks for this info - I definitely didn’t know it had insulting connotations and won’t be using it from now on!
