Feeding citrus

Oranges and lemons are very hungry plants and really require year-round feeding. Some time during winter they should ideally have a winter feed (of equal parts nitrogen, phosphates and potash ; available in proprietary feeds). This helps growth and fruit ripening. From now on it needs a summer feed (high in nitrogen to boost growth and prevent fruit drop).
