Evening All,
Another great gardening day just passed, got three hours in after work. :D
Now, amongst all you knowledgeable folk :wink:
why do my citrus trees keep dropping the fruitlets after only a couple of weeks growth,they get to large pea size and then wind up on the ground :(
This applies to the lemon, lime and mandarin, all bought this year as small trees so that thay can overwinter in the greenhouse.
Any comments/help would be appreciated,
Regards Paul
