Growing Bearss seedless limes

Hi,
Thanks for your very useful articles. I grow several lime trees, and have a serious
problem with the leaves turning yellow. They still produce flowers and fruit, but look terrible.
I have tried sequestered iron, and now Epsom salts, as well as the usual citrus fertilisers, but no improvement. Any advice appreciated,
Regards,
Bill Ure (Portugal).

I would start with a soil test to determine if this is a nitrogen deficiency or other soil issue.
