Dee,it was an interesting story on citrus plants.Thanks for posting it here.I have just one citrus, Meyer Lemon.It's infested by mealy bugs and yellow scale in the same time.Still alive and yielding!Felt guilty so I've just sprayed against pests and washed the leaves.I'll show more interest in it from now on.I wish to have more fruits this season!
Today I harvested my Red Robin in diatomite which has been grown under lights.14 ripe fruits totally weighed 109 gr.The heaviest one (lol) was 9 gr. mean app. 7,78 gr.Despite being grown under artificially lights using inorganic ferts, taste was over my expectations!I presumed it to be rather bland.Surprisingly those watery red gems had an old style tomatoey taste!They were definitely better than store bought tomato looking things! Can't wait to try outdoor grown Red Robins in summer!
