Tuscon Citrus -- Take A Chance to Fertilize Now?

Posted by pgde Tucson Zone 9 (My Page) on

For those of us in Tucson, has anybody taken a chance and fertilized their in-ground citrus? We are now past the 50% chance of frost.

Considering the long term forecast (nighttime temps not below 39) for the next two weeks and the fact my citrus are beginning to bloom and send out new growth due to the warm weather, I am seriously considering it.

What about you all?

Last year a guy here in town who has a family orchard said to fertilize on Valentine's Day and Labor Day.

I've heard Valentine's Day, Memorial Day, and Labor Day. I too am considering fertilizing now, though. My lemon tree is blooming much earlier than usual due to the warmer winter we had.
