HI Marie! Love love love your blog. You are both an inspiration. You have a wonderful voice even though I've not heard it. I just happened to see that have done calendars on the past. Will you be offering one for 2018? Thanks. So much and please keep on blogging. You're amazing!~Sheila Bishop
Hi Marie, I bought a key lime at a nursery last fall and even after my husband over watered it (it was sitting a large pot of water for days) it is beginning to thrive. I could see it was still losing leaves in the spring and as soon as night time temperatures were over 50 F I planted it in my front yard. I live in the Boston area so with nightmare temperatures under 50 F I took it out of the ground and put it in a large terracotta pot. I read your advice about watering, light meters,fertilizers, sunlight, and humidity. Should I be concerned that there could be worms in the soil I dug up with the plant? Any other thoughts?
Hi Stacey - for Boston, best to keep your citrus tree permanently in a pot that you move in and out. Its root system will remain more stable (it's been through a lot!). If the worms are earthworms a few might be OK, and may help with good drainage. Just don't over water - let the soil dry out between deep waterings, and give it the best light possible.
