Cultivation methods and precautions for potted lemons

The cultivation method of potted lemon mainly lies in the following aspects:

Spring pruning and repotting

Potted lemons grow healthily, so pruning is necessary to ensure better growth. The best time to prune is in spring. At this time, you should combine repotting with spring pruning to cut off dead branches and leaves, diseased and insect-infested roots and leaves, and overgrown branches so that the plants can grow and bear fruit.

For potted lemon flowers, the soil should be changed between March and April during the Spring Festival to increase the nutrients needed for growth and increase the growth of the plants.

Precautions

When pruning, be careful not to cut the main branches and tender branches and leaves.

When repotting, choose a pot that is suitable for the size of the lemon plant, not too big or too small. When changing the soil, apply base fertilizer to the bottom of the pot.

Reasonable fertilization

Before the lemon plant blooms and after it bears fruit, it is necessary to apply top dressing. Apply multi-element flower fertilizer once every month and spray flower nutrient solution once every half a month.

Precautions

The fertilizer used for fertilization is multi-element flower fertilizer. Do not apply other fertilizers to avoid damaging the roots and affecting growth.

Apply fertilizer in moderation and according to the growth trend. Apply more fertilizer to large plants and less fertilizer to small plants.

Pest and disease control

Hot summer and cool autumn are seasons when pests and diseases are prevalent. In such cases, reasonable prevention and control should be carried out.

To prevent and control diseases and insect pests, just spray the anther once every half a month.

Precautions

Please be careful when spraying. The best time to spray is around 9 am or around 4 pm. Do not spray under the scorching sun at noon, otherwise pesticide damage is likely to occur.
