yes, leaves gives indication of HLB too, but I find it very hard to differentiate between nutrient deficiency vs HLB. It's a combination of factors (fruit taste + fruit not maturing + fruit has reindeer like redness at the stem of the fruits + leaves yellowing) that will for sure confirms it. Process of elimination is to address roots problem first. Because if tree does not absorb nutrients and water properly thru the roots & root collar, tree will be not healthy to provide food and sugar it processed to the rest of the trees.
yes if you the plant is in a pot. Either take it out & trim the roots & replace the soil on exisiting pot or give it a larger pot. In my case with this tree, the bottom of the pot was purposely cut off so that roots are encourage to grow into the ground. Here's a pot bound one that I finally repotted. th-cam.com/video/xk72qPpD6GU/w-d-xo.html
tree is lushes with lots of green leaves. Very little flowers and fruits this year, maybe it's because it's recovering from having bear so many fruits this past winter.
Awesome video 👍🏼
Thank you! 👍
If the leaves are random in discoloration, its disease, and if they are uniformly discolored, it nutrient deficiency

New subscriber here ...great video, thanks for sharing!!
thanks for subscribing. I'll be doing more of these type of videos to teach people how to keep and maintain their trees healthy for years
@@CherimoyaQueen I'll stay tuned!!
The tree is in 15gal pot with the bottom cut off. I'm sure the roots already grow into the soil.
Would you agree you need to up-pot after harvest? Just wondering,I have a glen navel same size. Believe it needs the same.
