Why Did My Lime Tree Not Produce Fruit After A Robust Bloom?

Question

I have potted lime tree that had soooo many blossoms but now only one lime is growing…..? I fertilized it, it gets plenty of sun and looks healthy!! I have been giving it extra water when our temps reach 100 degrees. My region is southern Oregon .

I suspect that it has something to do with the fertilizer that you used. They can be pretty specific about the nutrients that they receive. This can also be caused by pH swings, and uneven watering, as well.
