Meyer Lemon Indoor during winter. Should I fertilize at all?

Info:Meyer Lemon in a container. It's cold in Maryland Zone 7 now, winter below 32s now. Purchased back in april or may and it's growing so AWESOME!!
It's been inside a lot recently, goes out when its a warm day. That hasn't been happening too much lately. It sits in my kitchen gets indirect sunlight, but thinking of throwing some lights on it to supplement a little more lighting, maybe.

It flowers every week. I let the flower fall and give me little lemon babies. I have about 6 on it now. I kept only one on there for a while and it's huge and has not turn yellow yet. Could be to lack of sunlight/ it takes a while for it to ripen.


My question is should I put fertilizer on it?

I have some Dr.Earths and haven't put any on lately, because I didn't know it doesn't go dormant. Since it's not full sun like the summer months, would this hurt it or help it?


When I add the fertilizer I always do less than recommended!
