Citrus Trees in Heat: What to Do Now | Las Vegas News

Your citrus trees are under heat stress—leaves curling, sunburn, fruit dropping? Time to act. Deep water the roots, shade the west side with burlap, and watch for pests and nutrient issues. Aphids? Spray with water or soap. Yellow leaves? Check for iron or nitrogen deficiency. That black powdery stuff? Treat the pests first, then wash the leaves. Leaf tips burning? Flush soil to remove salt buildup. Water deeply and early—before 9 AM—and mulch to keep roots cool. Skip pruning now—it exposes fruit to sun. Pull off suckers below the graft for airflow instead.
