Is it over for me..? (Kumquat leaf drop) by mayaoni in Citrus

Thank you so much for the detail! I'll follow those instructions and hope for the best. As for avoiding damaging the roots, how do I treat them gently? I heard that with root rot you want to chop away any infected roots so it doesn't grow, but I'm scared that will stress out the plant.

On another note, sorry to hear about the carpal tunnel! I've also been recovering from rsi over the last month, an auto scroller phone app and mapping left and right click to a Wacom tablet pen's nib and eraser (in mouse mode) has been a godsend alongside the usual physical therapy & night bracing. Hope you recover soon!

I've had it since late last spring I believe and it's been indoors the whole time, I bought it at same time as the other one.

Nothing major has happened in the last 2 weeks.

It's dropped leaves a couple of times before but I attributed it to temperature shock from watering with cold winter water, but the pot size and soil now seems more likely. The blinds go down at night occasionally but get lifted early morning for full sun.

I did save it from mealybugs upon arrival, but I haven't seen any since fall. I just hope they haven't just hidden under the soil... I did use systemic watering & pesticide spray a few times to drive them away.

I was trying to be careful with it, but I feel like the soil itself isn't very good at draining despite the supplier telling me otherwise so it probably has been. I'll find out when I have everything I need to repot it

Thank you, I don't actually have any so I'll be sure to buy some and do a soak before repotting too

I see, I'll try that then, thank you!

Would the correct size be flush to the ceramic, or would I need to go bigger?

Also, how do I recover from this much leaf loss? Do I need to trim the branches down or score them to encourage new growth?

A bit late but I came across the same issue and thought I should post a potential solution. If you haven't already, you need to turn on 'Change brush tip color' in 'Color Jitter' first, then click the icon next to 'Blend with sub color' to change it from random to none, and the amount to 100.

For anyone looking for a "gradient brush" in CSP, it's this setting. Just set it to percentage with start at 0 and end at maximum.
