Every six to eight weeks is the feeding schedule for most organic fertilIzers if actively growing. Eight weeks woul be the safest option.

If your early in your grow but later in the grow you need to change or add water and nutes every 2 to 3 days hope this helps

We have two for citrus trees. One is probably ten years old and is in excellent condition. We live at 4500 feet and keep the soil moist all the time. In the winter we roll them into the garage, so they've never been frozen. We have them in pans meant for water heaters, on four wheels. If you do that, get at least four inch high wheels to make rolling easier.

Well, you can always add something (miracle-gro) mid season if you feel it is necessary. Get the best soil mix that your nursery has. The flowers in my flower boxes using the mix from the gardenpatch were exceptional. But, that had the fertilizer tube.

It is recommended to use this product in springtime when the tree leaves are emerging. That is when the insecticide has the greatest flow from the tree roots upward. I used it late summer in hope that there was still some capillary action to draw this drench into the tree.Use it once a year. I recommend boring 1 inch to 2 inch holes into the dirt near the base of the tree to contain the run-off and serve the root system more quickly.

I'd hold off for the season and put down a good winterizer in the fall, followed by a strong pre-emergent fertilizer/weed controller in the early spring. Like I said, I had zero success with this product.

Yes you can,it should come with planting instructions.If not start with a small pot(1 gallon) and light soil,move it to the next size up when you see roots coming to the top.Don't overwater.Have plenty of drainage and fertilize at least every 3 months.Mine came out of the box with lemons already on it!

It can be somewhat dense so I would say 1 cup per 8-10 inch container and mix with another medium. That should feed your plants for about 3 months.

We use about 1/2 stick every 3 to 4 months on our Meyer Lemon tree and works very well.

I have not (yet) added any plant foods to my nannies. So far I prefer to fertilize separately since it's only monthly. I use large, clear plastic bottles for my floor pots so the extra amount of water would probably prevent over fertilizing if a small amount is added. I did read on one of my fertilizer pkgs that it was not recommended it be added to an "automatic" watering system. Don't remember which one or the reason.

I use it every other watering, so about every other week, but that is just based on my needs and there are probably a bunch of variables that would determine how often you would want to use it. I know certain plants recommend more or less frequent fertilizing.

Jobe's has "Large Indoor Plant" spikes, #5402, but I like Jennifer's idea of the tablets specifically for citrus. I think an organic fertilizer would usually be safe, but would it have the nutrients that your plants need?

Just turn the compost every few weeks. Shouldn't be a problem. Check your ratio of brown material to green.

yes I went and bought a big pot, the proper soil and some citrus fertilizer! I have 6 huge lemons just about ready to pick on my tree - can't wait to try them!

As long as you bring it inside in the winter. We have one near Buffalo, NY and its doing great. My husband's grandfather has had a lemon tree (that fruits several times a year) for 15 years and he lives in Boston, MA.

Just pour it in the open top. I unplug and pour out the water (on plants outside) twice a week and then wipe it down and just pour about a pitcher and a half in. If the weather is dry and the level goes down quickly, I just add a cup of water in between the total refills.
