Westland Citrus Potting Compost Mix and Enriched with Seramis, 8 L

Product Information

In general, aim for equal parts of the above materials to amend your citrus tree soil (except for manure, more on this below). The purpose is to revive the soil and solve whichever issue it was having, whether it was dead, holding too much water, or any other issue. If the issue is severe enough, consider repotting your citrus tree and amending all of the soil (see the transplant steps above for instructions). Citrus like cool, but not cold, conditions in winter, as a little growth does take place. A minimum winter night temperature of 10°C (50°F) is fine for lemons. Calamondin oranges Loam soil is a mix of sand, silt or clay, and organic matter. Loam soils are loose and look rich. When squeezed in your fist, moist loam will form a ball, which crumbles when poked with a finger. Loam soils normally absorb water and store moisture well. Loam soils can be sandy or clay based, and will vary in moisture absorption and retention accordingly.

Although making your own citrus potting mix is a great idea, you may not have the time or space to concoct your own. There are many commercially available citrus-friendly potting mixes you can use. Often they are formulated for cacti and succulents as well, as these plants also need a fast-draining lightweight soil.While this is up for debate, it’s likely a safe bet to go with the well-known, organic brands of potting soil. Calcium mainly inhabits the leaves of a plant. It is essential for the development and functioning of the root. It is required for chromosome cell division and stability. An inadequate supply of calcium can reduce your lemon tree’s fruit yield and growth.

When I needed to repot my Meyer lemon tree, I found that Espoma’s organic mix was the best choice for me. While I didn’t mix in sand or peat moss to increase the acidity (which I would recommend), I did provide some acidic compost and food scraps such as citrus peels, onions, and coffee grounds.
