I was advised to fertilize citrus 3 times a year with manure. Mine are all thriving since I started this practice. You should be right for pollination.

i meant mulch with manure. So plenty

Comments: - This one came from Bangalow Markets Forbidden Fruits Stall Sept 2012. Was healthy when I brought it home but then I transplanted it a couple of times before I found the right positin for it and since the last transplant about 2 mths ago it has completely halted in its growth. Keeping my eye on this one, not sure how she will go...

Planted November 2015 so too young to be able to review anything yet. It's currently in full sun. I water almost daily depending on weather. I planted in a 75 litre planter bag with a BIG bottom layer of course grade pine bark then kind of equal amounts of good quality potty mix, coir peat, perlite and a shovel of organic pellets mixed through. A really good layer of small pine bark on top.

Looking forward to trying these :)
