Planting Time: Spring, Early summer, Early fall, Mid fall
Citrus plants prefer well-draining, slightly acidic soil, full sun exposure, and regular watering. Start by preparing the area, ensuring it gets 6-8 hours of sun daily, and has good drainage. Plants should be spaced according to their mature size to allow proper airflow. After planting, ensure a deep watering to settle soil around roots. Pruning isn't necessary initially, but mulching is beneficial. While all citrus types share these general requirements, the specific needs differ for each species. For success, always understand the unique needs of your specific variety.
