- An in depth explanation on how to repot and root prune a dwarf meyer lemon citrus tree. I give my advice of a few tips for success and explain why this particular tree needs a repot and what we find when we inspect the root ball.

Excellent, straight to the point video. Thanks!
Great video... very helpful for a new beginner citrus mom like me
Hi great video 🙏
Hi, great video (and music) just wondering what season is best for root trimming citrus? Thanks!
For my bonsai and potted citrus I usually root prune late winter/early spring. When spring hits and the tree start to explode with new growth it gives them ample time to reestablish before the summer heat. You can probably get away with a late fall root prune, but spring seems to be best. They bounce back nice and quick. Cheers
@@thepepperboi Thanks! 🙏🏻
Great video, love the music. I was just thinking of pruning my Meyer's roots because I don't want to up size this year. How did it turn out after the trim?
Thanks! It’s actually an older band I played in a few years ago. Free music haha. The root trim went well. It took a few weeks before it really took off, but now it’s growing strong again.
That's good man, glad you guys were able to make some good music. Also glad your Meyer bounced back good. I need to trim mine but I kinda want it root bound for winter, just not sure if it will reduce the flowering.
you probably dont care at all but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any help you can give me
@Deangelo Arian Instablaster =)
@Wesson Harrison i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Very informative but wish the music was turned down. It blasts because you have to turn the volume up the hear the narrative.
Does your pot have drainage holes under?
Yep it has one big drainage hole. More would be better though
great vid but dang the music is so loud when it cuts in I have it set loud to hear you lol oops see this was addressed lots :s
How long do we have to wait to fertilize the tree after pruning the roots?
I would let the roots get established a bit before fertilizing, maybe 3-4 weeks. You may want to consider doing a less concentrated liquid fertilizer the first couple of times. I’ve found that less is more when it comes to fertilizing. Once established the slow release organic fertilizer you can work into the soil is great.
@@thepepperboi ok thank you so much, i almost stabbed the spike fertilizer lmao
How come you cut the roots?
I trim the roots to make sure it doesn’t get root bound. The roots can wrap around and end up eventually choking off nutrients. I’ve found if you trim the roots you can keep it in the same size pot for a long time. Similar to bonsai.
@@thepepperboi ohhh ok I understand. Thanks 🙏
music is crazy loud and your voice is crazy low
I have to mute and just read aut-gen captions otherwise the music cuts in and blows out my ears
Yeah for some reason the balance is off after it uploaded. Will fix next vid:)
excellent information, well presented. Speak more distinctly and lose the music.
I personally wouldn't use a pot with just one hole for drainage
why do captions auto generate. i hate having to turn off for each video i watch. very annoying
Must be settings in your TH-cam account?
I have that same issue phone, so annoying.
P.S. my co-worker just clicked on the cc button at the top of the screen to turn it off.
bad sound levels
Yes we know lol. But the video is already posted and up so next video will be better. Hope you found some of the info useful. Cheers!
Would of been great to observe the video in landscape rather than portrait, but nonetheless, thanks for the video.
