I have a young Satsuma tree that produced for the first time this year I have a two part question, first when should I fertilize it and what is the best type of fertilizer and is there is anything else I should do prune etc
I don't actually grow citrus fruits Richard but I treat my fruit trees just like my tomato plants. I start to feed them when the flower buds first appear and continue to do so until the fruit ripens. After the fruit has been picked then I stop fertilizing and prune them back before the frosts. I can't recommend a fertilizer but I think there may be a specific one just for citrus fruit. If I remember correctly Satsumas can tolerate cold easier than most other citrus fruits.
Thanks for the info. Yes they are very cold hardy not that that is a problem in Louisana. My tree is only about 2yrs old it held 6 nice Satsuma this yeare tho,
