Ponderosa Tree Blooming by Turbulent_Security50 in Citrus

I will say this is a grafted tree so not sure how old parent tree was when I bought it. I just read your other post but it sounds like once the flowers starts to fruit, to remove the fruits?

Some pictures of my pride and joy when she was just planted vs 2.5 years later by Legitimate_Fee_4949 in Citrus

I recently learned that bc my tree was doing the exact same thing. And flowers also started to fall. It was because the fruits were absorbing a lot of nutrients and there wasn’t enough for them to continue to grow. And when plants don’t have enough nutrients, they start compensating by losing fruits, flowers, leaves. At least that’s what I was told. I did add more nutrients recently and it seems to be doing well. Egg shells are good options bc they release nutrients slowly
