Citrus Mix Fertilizer 6-3-3 is a plant food for citrus trees, including those in home orchards and containers. It can also be used on avocados, other fruit trees, ornamentals and vines. The 6-3-3 NPK formula supplies nitrogen for green growth, phosphorus for flowering and potassium for fruit development. It also contains micronutrients.
The fertilizer is made from natural and organic materials: feather meal, fish bone meal, alfalfa meal, basalt, kelp meal and potassium sulfate.
For established citrus trees, apply 1 cup per inch of trunk diameter. Spread it from the base out to the drip line, work it into the soil and water thoroughly. When planting a new tree, mix 1 cup into the backfill soil. Trees that are 1 to 2 years old get half the recommended amount. For container citrus, apply 2 to 4 tablespoons per gallon of soil, 4 to 6 times per year.
