Ok. I’ll have to cut back a bit on fertilization. I’ve been giving 5-5-5 every two weeks. Two table spoons per 5gal pot. I did a soil change two months ago. At that time, the roots looked pathetic. Could have also been the effect of root rot. But, no matter what, I want some well developed roots. Winters here are bad for about two weeks. I’d like to have some fast growers in early spring. It will help my chances with getting fruit.
