The owner had an opened 5lb bag of Suniland 6-4-6; I figure there was maybe 4lbs left. The directions said 1lb per foot of tree in either height or width whichever was greater so I watered (I had deep watered last night), spread the contents (did not remove the oak leaf/pine needle "mulch" but did stir it in) around the tree and watered lightly. I'll give her a good soaking tonight. I hope I did this right.

The branch with the orange on it is very healthy; leaves on the rest do not look really perky. Would a weak foliar feed with MG help that or should I just wait for the fertilizer to take effect? And how long before you see "action"?
