Hello I realized I didn't do a proper pruning this year Can I still prune in Sept? I live in the Baltics Also, I just repotted my 2yo calamondin tree mid-August When I first bought it, it was around 1 foot and bearing lots of fruits It had fruit also 2-3 times after that The third time was less and didn't mature

Question: I note you cut straight across, but I've read other articles that say it's best to cut at a 45 degree angle Does it really matter?

14:27 I bought some red grapefruits from the store around 7 or eight years ago and found a sprouted seed I planted it and it has grown well and to my surprise some pretty defensive thorns I topped it as you suggested due to dieing branches an it growing branch on one side more than the other,so now I just have to wait to see what she does now

This was so helpful Probably the most helpful pruning video I’ve seeen I have an 8 year old container calomondine But i feel I need to prune it back drastically It fruits so much but a lot of the new branches are thin and leafs only on the outer most parts of branches I’m nervous to prune it so much but it has a nice shape but it’s not as bushy as it used to be

Do you realize the number of times you use the word "insane" ?brI have watched about 1/2 of one of your videos, and about 1/4 of another and I am struck by your overuse of this word It seems that you use it to fill in all gaps created when you don't know a more appropriate or descriptive term It is a sign of being poorly educatedbrSome people with your limited vocabulary use the word "massive" to fill in their gapsbrTry thinking ahead about what you are going to say And try reading actual books to familiarize yourself with what our language has to offer

Thanks 🙏 n doing it

Great information but your photo skills are poor You hold things too close to the camera You also do not need to explain what is going on with the camera it is distracting Do you watch your video after making it? We don't care if you are indoors or out Whether you eat rotten fruit of not is not interesting Show more pruning and less extra After you ate the orange we were all waiting for you to have to be rushed to the ER You get off topic a lot Thanks for the info but I still am wondering how to prune my indoor lime tree

4:30? Oh, I don't want to live there 6:00 is early enough! I have an orange tree now :) I think it's going to be beneficial against pests also!

Comment from : Samuel Helton

I noticed roots coming from my graft area; Should I be concerned and how do I prevent it?
Comment from : Diana Thompson

If I have to cut it back to the ugly "barky" part, will it live?
Comment from : gracefulfish

If I just transplanted my young grapefruit tree (about 5') to a bigger pot, should I wait a little before pruning?

Loved the tips on Tomatoes best tomatoes i ever raised! THANK YOU!
Comment from : steve jenkins

I just subscribed because you ate that fruit 2 yr old video still bringing people in Im happy to see your at 1 Million That made me giggle idk dude thanks!
Comment from : trapters1

Hi Luke Do you do anything with the leaves that grow from the main stem? What about the branches that seem to criss cross other branches? Should you let it fork or cut away the fork that doesn’t appear to be the main stem? I started my lemon from seed and it is contained to a pot I keep potting up as it grows and it is healthy but I do keep it inside as I am afraid of pests that may attack it outside Just wanted to double check before I prune for fear of killing it Also, when is the best time to prune? I don’t think you covered that in your tutorial Thanks so much for all your videos I find them highly informative Grow big or go home 🏡 Leanne

New subscriber and fellow Michigander down river area I started growing 3 calamansi tree (wife is Filipino) and looking good 20 inches high I was wondering about grow lights, the spot in my house sadly not much natural light So with short days as you know here in Michigan, do you use any grow lights on your citrus trees? And if you do how many hours you use them? Thanks now back to see your other videos
Comment from : Mike Osinski

I have branches rubbing Growing into each other On a tree I would take them off Myers Lemon would I do the same?

You can grow citrus in zone 8A in Virginia Beach, Virginia
Comment from : JT

Thank you so much for this video!! I googled "leaves falling off orange tree" and flagging never came up But that is exactly what's happening to my tree Love your videos—I've learned SO much!!
Comment from : The Renaissance Housewife

Thank you so much for taking the time to show and explain all the details! Especially for us first timers in citrus keeping I have a Meyer lemon tree and a Rio red grapefruit tree coming soon and they will be potted in large terracotta to stay indoors during the cold months Your citrus videos have been tremendous help!
Comment from : Holly Paronish

Uum you can most definitely get fruit from a container grown citrus It’s because it’s inside and not getting sun Why do people think this guy knows about tropicals?
Comment from : St Pete Runner

I just purchased my first citrus tree, a Meyer Lemon per the seller, & this video is incredibly valuable Thank you!
Comment from : Logan Probst

Comment from : suzanne sutton

Thank you for this video! My lemon tree was losing its leaves and it had many flaggings I followed your instructions and after one week, lots of new leaves started to grow!

Comment from : Amy Snipes

I know this is years after your video but I have a question, my orange tree is about 5' and 7 years old grown from seed, was a fluke of me just putting seeds in dirt to be honest super healthy plant, no flagging, very little leaf loss but still no flowers A lot of sun and grow lamps in the winter, any idea as to why it may not be flowering?

Comment from : cc ccclark

Thank you for all the great advice I too live-in Michigan, it's the end of August and I'm thinking about having to bring my lime tree inside Is there a good/bad time to prune back my tree in the ways you suggested?brCurrently I have 6 individual limes of various sizes on my tree and one "cluster" of blossoms When we first got this tree there were several clusters like this and over time all but 4 limes fell off Should I leave a cluster alone or take off blossoms until there are just one or two Thanks for any advice
Comment from : Diane

You’re one heck of an aggressive pruner on citrus trees!
Comment from : Mr Wade

I really appreciate your videos, they are so helpful! I do have two questions Should I prune off any branches of my meyer lemon tree that are growing straight up from another branch (as with pruning peach trees)? Also, when would be the best time to prune Meyer lemon trees? Thanks for your help!
Comment from : cherish maldonado

I know this is a year old, but citrus grow just fine in zone 8 I live in Savannah, GA, and there are plenty of outdoor trees that produce each year ;)
Comment from : Hannah JS Davis

You probably don't have the ability to answer everyone commenting on your videos but in case you are around I was just curious about one thing I want to build a home design that has a 120 foot long greenhouse on the south facing side that I'm going to fill with trees I was curious about what you said about not growing them tall because of being in a pot? Do you know of any resource I could look up to see how large of a pot I'd need to use ( or growbed ) to utilize the full height of the greenhouse? say 8 to 10 feet tall citrus? do you know how much volume of soil i'd need for the tree to not be stressed?
Comment from : Obligate Carnivore

Michigan is 600 miles from zone 9?? More like 1200 miles, bruhbrbrC'MON MAN!
Comment from : Get planted

I've had a calamondin orange for a few months and just want it to concentrate on growing for now It has quite a lot of fruit alreadyshould I cut them all off if I just want growth for this season?
Comment from : Tony Grayson

If you're such an expert, why do your trees look so crappy ?
Comment from : youpattube1

Nice
Comment from : ДЕНДРОБЕНАРІУМ

“I don’t speak plant” so humble Luke I would say that you most definitely DO speak plant, quite fluently in fact! 💖 🌱 ✨ Many thanks for all that you do
Comment from : ChasingLife

Your contemplation about eating the fruit was just golden It made me laugh Also, this was very helpful Thank you!
Comment from : Richie Propster

I live in Las Vegas and I’m growing a lime tree outside
Comment from : Swiss001

I have a baby lime tree that has flagged completely I'm trying to see if it's a total loss or if it will eek out a few more leaves to get going again Is this a total loss? Should I give up, yet? Zone 7a and when I set these young plants outside last summer they seemed to burn, so have kept them inside under grow lights on a timer ever since
Comment from : Truth Seeker

I would definitely also eat the first orange lol Very helpful video, I have a lemon and a lime that are tall and thin from explosive growth outside the last few summers so I need to cut them back to a reasonable indoor size

Root stock shall shed off the scion overlords! Viva la revolucitrus!
Comment from : Bald Sasquach

Question: I just got my lemon tree this summer It is small but has lots of small fruits growing It’s time to bring it in for the winter Will these fruits continue to grow & ripen inside in a large window?
Comment from : marnie Anderson

i believe citrus has been known to grow in North Carolina Some lemons are pretty cold hardy when established and well mulched most of NC is zone 7 im in 7b, it might be worth trying my meyer lemon in the ground
Comment from : Steven St Gelais

I know this is old video, i started a lemon tree from seed it has 8 buds on it this yr (2 1/2 yrs now) do u think it will make fruit one channel i just watched says they should b grafted ???? Confused

Urban Chicken Momma & The Rooted Heart Garden

Hello! Love you videos I have a dwarf orange, lime, lemon, and olive trees in my greenhouse in containers They are 3 years old I am putting raised planter beds in my greenhouse instead of only having pots Can I transplant them into the raised planter beds? I have a greenhouse lighting system that keeps it warm and well lit year round I live near Seattle Thanks!
Comment from : Urban Chicken Momma & The Rooted Heart Garden

What kind of coffee is that? Do you know the region
Comment from : Chicken Legs

I’d be cool if you made a video about thai limes (kaffir limes), etrogs, yuzu and the Buddha’s hand Maybe plant the seeds and vlog as they grow They all have amazing aromas I was only able to grow one thai lime out of seed and it’s still very small but I ordered the seeds of the etrogs!
Comment from : Sleepy Heads

We have a citrus tree that we inherited we don't know what it is beyond that Why would one of the leaves be humongous?

Don’t you need bees to make oranges indoors, please?
Comment from : LastBlow

Thanks for the tips But I have a different question It rains everyday in the Philippines now Should I keep my lemons in pots away from the rain? I heard lemons don't like too much water
Comment from : Reind V

Thanks for sharing My lemon has 3 trunks Should I cut back two trunks to just have the main trunk grow?
Comment from : Hey J whats next

I really hope someone can help answer this question for me When I purchased my lemon tree, it had rather large and aggressive growth from the root stalk So much growth that both parts of the tree are equal in size and foliage However, it's clear that the growth is not from the original tree since it's not producing any fruit It seems obvious that I want to remove the growth part, but seeing as how it's so established, I don't want to cut it off and toss it How could I turn that growth into a whole new tree? Can I do it without grafting?
Comment from : Rob Smythe

HibrWhen to prune? Durning the summer when it’s outside or during the winter when it’s indoor?brThanks
Comment from : K Shipon

Hello! I was given this Meyer Lemon tree for Mother's Day I was wondering if I need to remove the leaves that are growing out along the trunk?they aren't branches, just leaves I am not planning on repotting it for a while, per the directions
Comment from : Leah Johnston

What’s your steps for taking out the citrus trees during summer and bringing them back for winter? What do you do for bugs?
Comment from : Jlui83

Thanks so much for this! This was exactly what I was looking for! Love the “citrus in containers” content!

Our citrus is outdoors with climate a bit like Florida here in New Zealand Our mandarin is a story tall The fruit is too high for us to harvest How far back can I prune this mammoth beast and keep it fruiting? The tree must be about twenty years old

My orange has fruit, but the fruit is very sour

Comment from : Ali Imtiaz

Thank you so much for this video! I didn't know what was happening when my lemon and limes trees started flagging Now I know what to look out for in the future and how to take care of it :3 Hopefully next year I can keep them alive through the winter with proper pruning
Comment from : SSgtTaylor96

Can you do an indoor care video for your Warm climate perennial plants starting with Citrus? Would be really interested I'm surprised the trees so lush in a near winter window
Comment from : HiltTilt

Thanks once again for some useful information!
Comment from : S V

I live in zone 9 in California (we get some frost, but no snow) & we have two big orange trees that have been producing delicious oranges since before my family moved here 40 years ago (the trees are one of the reasons my parents bought this house) brbrI know other people who have citrus trees & see them growing in yards around here & they all seem to grow well & produce a lot of fruit I think you just have to be careful to protect them from frost in the first few years (but that's just a guess, since I've never started one)
Comment from : Miriam Robarts

Not crazy at all to try your first orange of the tree!! 😀 cant wait to see more Can you show us the tree when its in full bloom and full of fruit? I live in the mountains of so cal so i have seen many many citrus trees outside but i am not in a zone to grow outside Im very curious how they produce so compact

Thank you for that, my key lime tree was looking pretty sad and I wasn't sure how much was too much Question about the new growth though, will new growth come from the woody parts or only green parts Thanks again,
Comment from : William Sine

awesome tips
Comment from : Pople BackyardFarm

I have 3 lemon trees my daughter grew from seeds They are going on 7 years old Will pruning remove fruiting ability for the coming season? These haven’t fruited at all yet
Comment from : GoldieRocks

This video was super helpful and came at exactly the right time for me, thank you! I now understand why my lemon tree was growing as it was, with flagging etc Is it normal for a lemon tree to shed older leaves at certain times of year? My tree looks healthy and has new buds/flowers but has dropped a lot of older leaves from older branches shortly after I brought it inside for the winter

aug, practice your focusing with the camera, it hurt my eyes to look at the blurred version maybe its my glasses I don't know but my eyes hurt
