saf starts with ... I planted a grafted imperial mandarin last summer but it has been sick since. Initially I had some new growth but soon after leaves started showing pale green spots and eventually leaves turning yellow (see picture). What can I do to treat the problem? Thanks in advance. Saf

Brendan says... Usually, if the older leaves are yellowing, it's lacking magnesium (epsom salts). If the new leaves are yellowing, it needs zinc & manganese. They grow best if mulched well out to the dripline, but keep it away from the trunk to stop collar rot. I give mine old cow manure as well, under the mulch. | About the Author Brendan Mackay, Q 2nd January 2012 9:18am #UserID: 1947 Posts: 1722 View All Brendan's Edible Fruit Trees |
