Citrus & fruit trees
Apply from near the dripline inward to just outside the trunk—never piled against the bark. Water in to move nutrients into the root zone.
Timing
Split across active growth windows if the label allows (for example spring push and post-harvest recovery).
Rates
Use the trunk-diameter or canopy-area tables on your bag for definitive application rates.
