lemon tree questions
I have a lemon tree that I overwinter in a greenhouse from end of october to may 24.When I pick it up in may it is in full blossom and when end of october comes the fruit is still green and I take it to storage haven got no lemons.I got 1 yellow lemon in time(first one in 7rs) and about 25 that are green,cant get the fruiting time right.Should I remove all the lemons now before it's stored and hope there are smaller fruit growing come spring.Any suggestions.Thanks

Re: lemon tree questions
In a subtropical climate, a true lemon will flower 3 to 5 times per year with each crop ripening in 4 months. If you have fruit on the plant when you take it to the greenhouse then it should ripen there. If not, there is a problem with the greenhouse.

Re: lemon tree questions
I'd like to add that the fertilizer you use should be for citrus or fruiting plants- higher P and K than N.
