fruit growth suppression
Citrus fruit growth elimination / suppression / retardation.
In a backyard: 2 citrus trees, 1 Tangelo and 1 Lemon ~ 20 years old, each 30+ ft tall, no fertilizer applied ever, seldom watered, pruned every 2-3 years, but each one is yielding, year after year, approximately ten (10!) full 35 gallon barrels of huge, juicy tangelos and lemons. == Problem: Fruits are ready all at one time. Too many!! == Comments: (1) "Fruit Eliminator", (Cl-Et-PO2Na) does not mention any effectiveness on nor use for citrus trees and cautions about leave discoloration. Despite this info, does anyone have positive ex. with it (1) on citrus trees. (2) I hate to do annual, manual blossom plucking. == Request: What can be sprayed onto these blossoms that will eliminate or at lest diminish this unwanted bounty? hanson |
