Q.Many Yellow Curled Leaves

Anonymous added on June 12, 2011 | Answered

I have a potted grapefruit tree. The cause may have been putting it out too early (a slight freeze) or my stupid watering/not watering regimine, but it has lost about 20% of its leaves. About 3/4 of the remaining leaves are sort of a lighter green and curled. It is potted in Miracle Grow citrus potting soil. The soil is pretty moist right now. What to do?

It might need fertilizer. Even planted in fertilize potting soil, they need fertilizer regularly to replenish what gets washed out when watering and just what they use. This article will help:
