Use a fertilizer specifically for citrus plants, fruit or nut producing plants. These fertilizers have elements required for fruit production. Plus, use KeyPlex Citrus HG, a Foliar Nutritional that is formulated specifically for Citrus—It provides additional ingredients your trees will love.

NEWLY TRANSFERRED PLANTS   

For the first three years, fertilize from March 1st thru October 1st every 6 weeks to establish a larger, fuller canopy. (Note: slow release fertilizers will be less often, follow label directions.) Spread evenly under canopy. Add KeyPlex Citrus HG as directed.

OLDER MATURE TREES

Fertilize 3 times per year. Spread evenly underneath canopy and outside canopy. Add KeyPlex Citrus HG as directed.

Balanced nutrition of plants should be a high priority management objective for every citrus grower. Plants require a balanced nutrition program formulated to provide specific needs for maintenance and for expected production performance. Properly nourished fruit trees or plants grow stronger, produce more consistently, have better disease resistance, and are more tolerant to stresses.
