Hi!
My name is Justin and I have my managed my family's business (S&K Greenhouse) for the last 10 years! It is a local garden center in Shelby, NC that my mom and dad started around 25 years ago.

We have a strong desire to discuss and teach gardening to the online community and welcome anyone who wants to learn. Though we have been involved in the plant world for decades we have found that there is always something to learn when it comes to gardening.

Whether you are a master gardener or just starting out this channel is for you. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our videos!

I thought my lemon tree had completely died because of an unexpected cold snap while it was outside. It did died back but is now putting out green growth. I think I might name it Lazarus. 😉

I live in va and I have 21 lemon trees. I built a greenhouse and installed infrared light for the winter. This is the second year i have collected lemon from one of my trees.

By far, the best content on improved Meyer lemon care I've seen on YouTube. Thank you!

This is very helpful. I have a tree that I started from seed of which I got from my grandma's tree and now she is no longer and neither can we go back and get seeds from that tree because it was cut down but this is super helpful because this tree is very special and it's like a miracle because it's been growing very big and a pot for about 9 years and I'm just trying to maintain it till I can permanently plant it in a real yard of my own. My tree finally gave me fruit and flowers about 2 years ago. This video is so informative! 😀 Thank you for these tips because it's hanging on but it's lacking something

My improved Meyer is Liz Lemon. Not particularly creative but it is spoken affectionately. Thanks for the info!

I didn't use any special dirt when I transplanted mine and it grew twice the size in no time and it bloomed several times. I've had it a couple years now. Was very small when I got it.

I've had my lemon tree for just eight months and it has a dozen blooms just sitting in my dining room window. I didn't know they have thorns! Thanks for the advice.

It's really interesting. Here in the Southern UK, most people think you can't grow citrus because our winters are too cold. It's not that, your winters are on par with coastal Georgia. It's that our summers aren't hot enough for them to ripen. Our typical winters only get down to about 26f (once in 50 year winters = 15f). US climate zones just don't make any sense here. I'm technically in zone 9b (Northern Florida/Southern Georgia equivalent), but our summers don't even quite average 70f. A polytunnel makes it possible though. I've got satsumas, kumquats and Meyer lemons growing in my polytunnel. Never thought it was possible, but it works! It's a bit dicey, as they barely ripen before the frost kicks in, but it's so much fun to grow citrus in the UK.

Thanks for the video and your sense of humor!

What size pot did that lemon tree come in and what size pot did you transplant it to. How do you determine the correct size to move up to? And how do you know when it's time to repot it?

[CBReal]

Meyer! I think a great name for that tree

[Peterrdee]

I went with a tall terracotta with cactus mix and I chose a harvey lemon since I didn’t want ponderosa I just heard it’s hardier and not as massive lemons

[metavision]

Just found this today. So years ago my wife gave me Grapefruit/Lemon/lime seeds that would be growing roots in her fruit. Long story short, I'm not sure if it's lemon or Grapefruit, I live in CT so it's in the house all year round, it has 2 leaves and didn't grow at all for like 2yrs! I was growing at that time and put it under my grow lights, it blasted off! I guess I need help to identify it! I learned a lot from the video, I need help pruning! I'm gonna check thru the videos!

[christiankrummel]

Great video, thanks. How many times will it bloom, I got 1 small 1 a it had 1 bloom . My Key Lime has 40. I live in Tampa so it does get a good amount of sun . I just fertilized last week for all of them with a 10-2-8

Name it "Lemony-Snicket". Actually I came here to learn about your outdoor gardening tips and this video just came up next. NOW you've got me wanting to plant a citrus tree which I swore I would never do again because we live in the Panhandle of Florida and have to cover our trees during the winter----YES, even here in Florida!! But I'll try this just because I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE LEMONS !!!

[WyquitaJarrell-qjkm]

Ok where did yoi get the pot and what size is it

[NatureZone]

Thanks! Got my first one this season and hoping some grow lights can supplement a little outside and inside. Curious, can you root the branches you trim?

[valerielamson]

😂😂I'm most def subscribing to you! I love the playfulness. Most videos about trees and plants are very straight to the point. I love a good sense of humor! 😂😂
