pale yellow-green Eureka lemon
 

This morning my handyman Roy came to fix the fence badly damaged in last
weekends cyclone (Tugun/Gold Coast). He saw the Eureka lemon tree with its
pale yellow-green leaves and commented that it must be deficient in some
nutrients. Hmm.....the Myer lemon is only 2 mtrs away in identical soil, but
a bit darker green. I have had some rusty nails spread about the base of the
Myer, having heard that they love iron. Should I do the same for my Eureka?

The best treatment for any lemon tree is to **** around the base
My Grandmother used to empty her bed pot on the lemon tree and the tree was
huge and always had plenty of fruit

WOW! Just to think what a water saving it would be if all house owners did
that!
I find it a bit impractical having to store the golden fluid first, but I
will try (I have very limited time for housekeeping). Thanks for the great
advice; btw, I have heard it before - now I see it wasn't a joke.

I did. Three months ago. That caused all original leaves (abut 1/3 of all)
to fall off.
Would I bother posting here about it, if the answer was that simple?

As a radical suggestion, bung some citrus food around it.

BTW.... I have one Tahitian in a large container. It dosn't do anything at
all; any ideas how to fertilize a citrus in a pot without burninng its
roots?
