Q.Orange tree

Zone 85351 | Rodsuemorkert added on January 26, 2018 | Answered

Our oranges do not seem to grow as big as the last few years. They are sweet like in the past but remain a little green on top part of orange. We water 2 times a week same as in the past. Also fertilize the first of every month when we are here. We are here December thru mid April .

This can happen over time. It would also help to add a little sulfur in the form of iron sulfate, as well as a little extra potassium and phosphorus, as sometimes they will need a little boost for fruiting.

Depending on where you are located, Much of the eastern U.S. has been a little cooler this year, which has affected many citrus crops.
