Planting Citrus Trees

[@tigr9997]

Greetings from the Caucasus, namely from Georgia. I have about a thousand mixed citrus trees. I would have a question, which substance's lack can cause annuality in citrus, more like a mandarin tree, which has good fruiting, the second year it literally does not fruit. It used to be stable, this has been happening for the last 7-8 years. Thanks in advance.

Great videos. I live down the road on western. We have a terrible time with gophers eating roots (especially the figs...not sure about citrus. Do you? And what do you do about it?

We have lots of gophers at the farm along with the ground squirrels. We're able to reduce the gophers/squirrels with trapping, but still lose a few young fruit trees every year. Below is a link to several dozen more fruit tree care videos.
