Down To Earth Citrus Fertilizer

Yes, this formula is designed for a wide range of fruit and nut trees, not just citrus. Its balanced 6-3-3 NPK ratio provides the essential nutrients needed for vigorous growth and fruit development across many orchard varieties.

Yes, because it is OMRI-listed for organic gardening, it does not contain synthetic chemicals or harsh pesticides. However, as with any fertilizer, it is best practice to keep pets and children away from the area immediately after application until it has been watered into the soil.

For best results, apply this fertilizer at the beginning of the growing season and continue applications every 6 to 8 weeks throughout the active growing period. Always refer to the specific feeding instructions on the package based on the size and age of your tree.

It is most effective when lightly worked into the top few inches of the soil around the drip line of the tree. After application, water the area thoroughly to help the nutrients break down and reach the root zone.

The 6-3-3 ratio indicates the percentage of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, respectively. The higher nitrogen content supports lush, green vegetative growth, while the phosphorus and potassium provide the necessary support for strong root systems and healthy fruit production.
