How to Manage Mould in Your Garden During Rainy Seasons

Mould in gardens typically occurs during prolonged rainy periods because excess moisture and humidity creates ideal conditions for fungal growth. This is a natural phenomenon and generally subsides once the soil dries out and proper air circulation is restored.

When life gives you lemons, here's how to care for your citrus tree after fruiting. 🍋

After fruiting has finished and before flowering occurs, reduce your fruit tree by a fifth by pruning back any over-reaching branches, affected by gall wasp, dead, diseased or crossed over. This will promote better airflow and encourage growth into younger more productive branches. Feed your citrus tree with Searles Fruit & Citrus Food in early spring and again in early autumn. This will aid healthy root and leaf growth, and provide nutrients to help achieve large juicy fruit.

You never regret the fruit trees you plant. 🌳

When planting fruit trees in pots, it is important to consider the location as it may be difficult to move them once your tree is potted. Ensure you position your pot where it can receive at least 6 hours of sunlight each day to allow your plant to perform well and bear fruit. Use a high-quality potting mix such as Searles Platinum Potting Mix or Searles Fruit, Citrus and Rose Speciality Mix. 🍋
