Maybe I put that wrong. I meant to say that I fertilized every two weeks.
I don't think I'm over watering I may in fact be letting them get too dry
between watering. The trees in question are a citrus (only one of two the
other is a dark green ) and most of my native pines. It's not that serious
(yet?) other than the slight yellowing the trees have been growing nicely. I
might just need some trace elements.
Thanks for the reply!

I don't know about the iron, but usually leaves turning yellow is a sign
of over watering. You say you are fertilizing twice a week, isn't that a
little too much??? I would certainly check with some of your Bonsai
friends in your area.... as to your fertilizing regimen..

Hello All,
I'm wondering if the iron in wellwater is in a form that's useable by
plants? I had assumed it is, but a few of my trees are yellowing a bit
and I
wonder if it's lack of iron. I fertilize bi-weekly with Dr.Shultz
20-30-20
at the one teaspoon per gallon rate.
Thanks,
