Just repotted my avocado and lemon trees into 7 gallon air pruning pots. There's only 1 avocado left (started with 6) and if it drops, no biggie...next season it should be big enough both above and below the soil line to produce. It was in a pretty small pot from the nursery, so repotting should really help.
My meyer lemon tree was a bit root bound, so I untangled the circling roots prior to repotting and expect to see new growth soon. None of the lemons have dropped, so I'm excited about that.
I made my own soil mix out of sand, peat moss, and perlite (2:2:1 ratio), added mycorrhizae, top dressed with organic worm castings, and mulched with dead leaf matter. This particular soil recipe drains so well it's almost impossible to overwater, which I need here in Florida. For now I'll hand water, and if all goes well, I'll switch to an automatic timer in a week or so.
