RE: My lemon plant is very sick

in HiveGarden2 months ago

Glad to see photos of you pruning it. I think thinning it out to let sunlight through will help the most. All that moldy fungus thrives under dark areas where the leaves are thick.

Try adding something like gypsum to the soil to help improve drainage, and leech out salts from fertilizers. If the roots are black and rotting, there isn't much maintenance above that will help.

Hope your tree rejuvenates. It is so large and fruitful. Having too much fruit can also stress the tree a lot, opening it up for diseases. Removing excess unripe fruit is a good idea when the tree is having a weak year.

Thank you for sharing. It helps me learn what signs of disease look like if it strikes my citrus tree too.

Hello @creativetruth Using photos where I see myself is already a habit for me with the experience of the #plantpowervegan community, there they request that you should be out in the preparation process, before I did not like to be in the photos for the platform.

So far the root is holding up well, of course if I had noticed that maybe it would have dried out months ago.

Yesterday I delivered another one, with the continuation of the suggestions made to me, today I started to apply the preparation with the Neem macerate, this is seven days, soon another post.

Ahhh, I forgot to tell you that its roots are fine because it has been thriving with new leaves for a few weeks now.

So my faith to the end and more.

Thanks for giving value to my post.

Best regards

This post that I show you I published yesterday 16/02/2025, there I follow another of the recommendations that were made to me.
