citrus questions
I wimped out and potted it into a smallish pot - when the roots fill the pot
(if ever) I will pot it on. Probably best in the short term as I nearly ruptured myself bringing in the Olive tree which I have just potted up in a large pot. "David W.E. Roberts" wrote in message ... "David W.E. Roberts" wrote in message ... snip Just about to pot up my lemon. Ideally I would like it to grow in a patio tub, about 40cm diameter and 40cm deep. Is it O.K. to bang it directly into a large pot, or should I pot it on in progressively larger pots? ISTR that flowering plants do better if potted on only when pot bound. However if the lemon was planted in a border then it would be in umpteen squillion megalitres of soil (how big is the earth anyway?) and would grow O.K. Don't want to slow the growth by leaving it all lonely in a great big huge pot :-) TIA Dave R |
