No problem. Have some coffee.

I would be happy to hear that it's only old groves that are being destroyed. But then older trees produce more fruit, up to a point.

I have half a dozen lemon and key lime trees. Most of them have something that curls the leaves. I've been told it is incyrable, but it doesn't seem to slow the trees down.

I will probably have about 300 lemons this year. The Meyers and Bears, the size of grocery store oranges.

"Most of them have something that curls the leaves."

If it leaves a trail before curling, leaf minors. 'Surefine' oil will take care of it... and you'll be PC with the tree huggers.

Check it out...

Sorry for the delay, if the leaves have a small line before curling, leave minors. Surefine oil spray does the trick AMD your PC tree huggers will approve.
