Citrus Tree Planting Guide | Giving your Citrus the BEST start even when growing in AVERAGE soil

i dont think it worked @@drock7325

It’s best to only top dress plants with compost. Too much organic material (within the root system)will become anaerobic and cause root rot when too wet. Also if compost is not done it will compost the roots. Laguna Hills nursery in California has videos on this. The guys name is Gary. His videos are very long but informative.

Personally I add a little to the soil and mix it in. @innerjon is right where it can damage the roots, but my soil is usually so hard that mixing in a bit of compost can loosen up the soil and improve it's quality. So if you're soil is good then don't risk it, however if your soil quality is horrible to begin with then I feel it's beneficial to mix some in with the soil.

Don't we all!

I like turtles
