Most fruit trees respond to heavy pruning by growing what are called 'water sprouts' and they are usually removed. This is not normally a citrus problem but then citrus are not usually pruned heavily. Al

LL, I started with 3-4 parts CHC, one part peat, one part perlite. I have started switching the CHC to screened bark, it looks like my citrus are doing better in a bark mix. I add dolomite, CRF, and Micromax for minors. I can get the exact proportions from my sheet out in the GH if you need them. SB

Meyer Lemons are a cross between Mandarin and Lemon (which itself is an ancient cross between Citron and Pomelo). For comparison, Oranges are thought to have originally been bred through multiple crosses between Pomelo and Mandarin. If you grow from seed, the fruit will likely not be as sweet or have inferior flavor to that of its parents. The good news is that lemons tend to not be as bad from seed as other citrus types. Since Meyer is a first generation hybrid, there is a high chance the second generation could take more after either Lemon or Mandarin, though it is very unlikely it will be anywhere near as sweet as Mandarin. More likely, I think, you may get something as sour as Lemon but as watery and flavorless as a bad Mandarin.

Thank you for the tips "Lemon Lime Orange Zone 6b". I was worried about over-watering in the container myself. Everything I read they like to be watered heavily and less frequently, but I didn't have a citrus potting mix so I was worried about water retention in the pot. Exactly how "moist" should the soil feel when I put a finger down in the pot. It is somewhat moist but not "wet" feeling...I definitely don't want to under or over/water them and that seems to be something I have to "watch" for here where I live. We had about 4-5 days straight of rain a few days ago, now it's been sunny all day, around 80-85º with around 70-80% humidity during the day and 50-60% humidity at night. It will stay this "type" of weather all summer down here on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi (Ocean Springs, MS). So with this knowledge, how often would you all recommend I water and how "damp/moist" should the soil dry up to before I deep soak it again? When I do water as I understand it like a deep soak, and with a 120L container and a 4' tree I should let water soak for around 20-30 seconds to make sure it gets throughout the entire container? It is lifted off the ground and the drain hole seems to work well so far. I ordered some "3 in 1 Plant Guard" from a company IV Organics (https://ivorganics.com/store/store-back/) that I've been watching a lot of his YouTube videos and will be putting it on the trees as well as using his spray 3 in 1 for the leaves. I also ordered his 6 macros + fertilizer. Speaking about fertilizer as you have. When I potted the trees I put a "cap full" of Osmocote Flower & Vegetable Plant Food in the pot and about 120L of potting mix that's a mix of pine bark, sand, and perlite. Then a few days later I put some Miracle Grow All Purpose Plant Food, which I mixed about 2 tablespoons into a 2gal water can with water and evenly distributed in the soil of both trees. Could I have over fertilized, and having gotten some of the Miracle Grow mix on the leaves caused the "burn" on them?
